Excelente libro, perfecto para el mundo del modelismo y muy detallado

Great book, lots of information. Well written, nice illustrations. Interesting history of the most famous battleship and her sister, Bismarck.

Nice book to go with my warship collection

This book is the 38th entry in Kagero's generally outstanding Superdrawings in 3D series (it is #16038). It is a stapled, 8-1/4" x 11-3/4" card cover with 96 interior pages. Like the others in this series the card covers count in the page numbering. Also like others in the series there is a brief 6 page text which covers the origins and service history briefly, but competently, and a table of technical characteristics.The meat of the book are the computer renderings of the ship in all its glory. They are superbly done and the published views seem particularly well chosen. Often when reading a book in this series I wish that the captions could have been more informative but in this book they seemed comprehensive and I learned a lot from them. The translation in this book seemed particularly good; in the past it was generally adequate to serviceable. The one area I could have wished for more coverage was the athwartships catapult. It was always depicted as mostly obscured by removable deckplates. In the text and captions it is described as two catapults, port and starboard, but I think it is more accurately a double acting catapult.Included with the book is an unbound foldout with more computer renderings. Outstanding here is a comparison between Tirpitz and its sister ship, Bismarck. If buying second hand make sure it is included.Highly recommended. The newest Kagero books are impossible to get from US distributors including Amazon these days. If you want a copy you'll have to look at foreign sources. I don't know the reason for this; if you know please enlighten me.

The most comprehensive and revealing drawings of the hull and superstructure I have seen, superb for the ambitious model maker. Just wish I had it ten years ago.

Bel libro ben descritto e foto nitide

Für Modellbauer ein Musthave

Sehr gute Zeichnungen der Tirpitz.Die hier gezeigte Tirpitz ist von 1942.Ab und zu finden sich kleine Fehler, aber bei der Tirpitz weiss ja niemand zu 100% genau alles, also kann man hier eigentlich auch nciht von Fehler sprechen.

nicht nur für Modellbauer sehr informativ.
