First entering combat in 1944, the IS-2 went head-to-head with German tanks such as the Panther, Tiger and King Tiger, and post war IS-2s and IS-3s were exported to China, Cuba and North Korea. This book is packed with easy to follow super-detailing and finishing instructions for building the IS-2, IS-3, and IS-3M variants, as well as for the prototype ISU-152, and features kits from manufacturers such as Dragon, Tamiya, and Fujimi. Advanced scratch-building techniques and working with photo-etched and other after-market accessories in 1\/35 and 1\/76 scales are covered, making this highly accessible book a welcome addition to any modeller's library.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e“If you are looking for a good book on building Soviet IS series armor, this is definitely one worth adding to your library.” —\u003ci\u003eJim Starkweather, Armorama (October 2004)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781841767574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Osprey Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40596031373518,"sku":"9781841767574","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_d284da03-a3ce-47db-81c9-0a92aafebe77.jpg?v=1637847751","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781841767574","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
