Brett Green books on aircraft modelling?

[clovis]

I'd like to make my next airplane the best one I've ever built. The last plane that I built was only 27 years ago, back when detailing and weathering was still a controversial subject. I'd like to hone my skills, and really build something super nice.

Has anyone bought or read any of the Brett Green books on aircraft modeling?

I think most of these books are published by Osprey.

They look like nice books, but I hate to throw good money out the window.

Thoughts or opinions???

Check out his website: www.hyperscale.com

Also look for reviews on book seller websites

Thank you for the reply!!!

I had no idea that he was affiliated with hyperscale. A cool website...but I wish there were more 'how to' topics. I am way behind on the learning curve!

Great idea on the book reviews!!!

FWIW, I ordered a copy of the Brett Green modelling book. This is the hardcover version with 190+ pages.

I saw the book in the Smithsonian Air & Space museum gift shop. We were in a crazy rush before they closed, and I had the book in my hands for literally 3 seconds. I thought it looked interesting, but had no chance to look it over.

I found a copy on the bay for just $16 shipped.

Again, thanks!!!

I received the book...it is very good.

While I have read the entire book yet, I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to improve their modelling skills.
