内容説明
The Sherman tank was the principal US and Allied tank of World War II with more Shermans manufactured than all German tanks combined. Not only were large numbers manufactured, but there was a very wide range of variants powered by different types of engines, manufactured with different types of hulls, turrets and other details. As a result, a M4A1 tank from the Tunisian campaign in 1942 had nothing in common with a M4A3E8 tank from the 1945 campaign in Germany, even if they shared the same name. Consequently, the Sherman has proven to be an enormously popular modeling subject.
Due to the enormity of the subject matter, this book is the first of three planned to deal with this tank and its many variants. It covers the early 75mm Shermans and runs the gamut from the US Army in Tunisia in 1942-43, Italy in 1943-45 and NW Europe in 1945. In so doing, it covers the broadest possible range of variants and details. The builds include:
1.M4A1, 2/13th Armored in Tunisia 1942/43. This is mainly 'out of the box', and deals with cleaning up and correcting the popular Dragon kit and painting it in desert colors.
2.M4A3, 6th Armored Division, Battle of the Bulge, January 1945: an intermediate level build, correcting and enhancing the Tamiya kit, and dealing with the issue of assembling aftermarket (separately available add-on components) link-to-link tracks.
3.M4A1, 2nd Armored Division, Sicily 1943. This is actually an earlier version of the M4A1 than the first type (2nd Armored having been the first division with the Sherman); an advanced level project using the Formations resin hull for the proper 'direct vision' early hull.
4.M4, 8th Tank Battalion, 4th Armored Division, Normandy, July 1944: the 'super'project, including a number of advanced techniques such as swapping the suspension on the Tamiya kit, applying foliage camouflage, building and painting a turret interior and adding figures to the model.
The book also showcases a number of other Shermans already built by the author to demonstrate the variety available.

連合軍AFVで有名なSザロガ氏の75ミリ砲型M4中戦車製作ガイドです。
作品のクオリティは高く、VVSSサス各型式など部分的に実車クローズアップ写真もありますので、作る人には良い参考になるでしょう。
日本の模型雑誌はドイツ偏重気味なので、米軍ファンは買って損のない内容だと思います。
完成写真のみですがアーマーブリゲード製レジンを使ったエルアラメイン戦の英軍M4A1、タミヤを大改造したジャンボもあります。
ラストには塗装用の色調ガイドチップも掲載。
印刷なので色味はあまり参考になりませんが、迷彩色とODの明度差を見る参考にはなります。
工作工程が紹介されているのは以下です。
（特記なきものは1/35スケール、全て米軍車輌）
1.M4A1初期型 シシリー戦線 ビジョンブロック有 D37893VVSS(M3中戦車と同一） DWFダクト自作
シャシー：ドラゴン、車体/砲塔：「フォーメーション」製レジン、サス：タミヤグラント、転輪：タスカ
ダクトの1/35原寸シルエット図付
2.M4初期型 フランス戦線 ビジョンブロッック有 近代化改修型
タミヤベース、サス：タスカ ビジョンブロック型に改造し、合わせて前面装甲板も自作
3.1/48 M4マインローラー バルジ戦
タミヤに「ガソリン」製レジンの地雷除去具を追加し、車体前面張り出しを米軍で一般的な型に改造
マインローラー基部のテクニカルマニュアル写真、スポンソン裏を塞ぐ蓋のシルエット図付
4.M4A3-75W ドイツ国内
ドラゴンM4A3-76「バルジ戦」キットベース、砲塔イタレリハイバスル
砲塔はチークアーマ型に改造、土嚢/履帯、丸太増加装甲（笑）を自作、自作擬装網もポイント
どうでも良い事だが、フィギュアの持つM1カービンは着剣ラグを除去して欲しかった。。
（大戦中に使われたカービンには着剣ラグがありません。M4バヨネットも使っていない位なので）

Sherman tank
2007/1/17
形式:ペーパーバック
I am an experienced armor modeler but I am always looking for new painting and weathering techniques. I found this book to offer several color schemes and painting approaches for the Sherman tank. I have been able to take and adapt the author's ideas to my work on some recent models. My litmus test for modeling books is simple: whether it helps me improve my skills in the hobby or not. This book did.
I do not have the time or patience for scratch building using styrene plastic and I seldom use aftermarket parts on my models--in part because I have a hard time making large cuts on a $40 plus tank model that I may or may not be able to repair. The author provided information about upgrading Sherman tank models with aftermarket parts and scratchbuilding parts. That is not, as stated, my interest, albeit it may be interesting or valuable to another modeler with different skills.
I have three other books of the same genre by the same author; I have ordered another. My opinion is that these are good products for the serious modeler and worth the money.

An excellent modeler's resource
2007/1/16
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Mr. Zaloga, a noted armor historian, strikes again with this volume in the Osprey Modelling series. This volume is themed around the famous M4 "Sherman" tank with the 75mm gun. The later "Shermans" with 76mm guns will be in a follow-on volume. This voluime has a brief overview and several model projects in different scales. The quality of workmanship is tremendous and each chapter has lots of historical information as well as modelling techniques. Each model has in-progress photos as well as descriptions and photographs of the finished project. This book is very handy for beginners as well as advanced modelers and should be in the collection of any person who enjoys military vehicle modeling.

For advanced Modelers
2007/5/15
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
This book is really geared for advanced modelers. It does have some nice color photos including some beautiful models by the author. But the modeling tips are really more advanced and are a bit beyond my current abilities. Maybe someday I'll be able to put this to better use.
