    I've just seen the article here on PF for a forthcoming book- Modelling Military Miniatures, it looks like it might be a good purchase but I'm wondering if there's any other similar books out there already?

    At the moment it's US infantry uniforms I'm looking at but I do model German subjects too and, ideally, painting with oils.

    Photos of real peices of clothing, equipment etc. would be good too.

    Any thoughts?

    Hi Dave

    The one you refer to is just Acrylics

    These are just a few for German after a quick Google , you could also search here on PF as well for both US and others

    There's also the Mr Black publications

    As for original uniform pics ......so many just google , have a look at reenactment sites as well

    There's also loads on You Tube

    Hope this helps in a small way

    Look forward to seeing the figures

    Thanks for that Nap, very useful.
    I have the AK Panzer uniforms book already, I just haven't found something similar for US Army uniforms
    I should be able to post some work in progress photos soon(ish)
