The guides cover all the common variations of uniform used during the period, including British and Canadian Battledress, Airborne forces uniforms, and the American M43 uniform, as well as when these uniforms were worn and introduced. Camouflage uniforms are also covered, and are broken down into how to apply the various patterns simply and with easy-to-repeat methods.
Illustrated with hundreds of photos, each stage of the guides has a combination of text description, photograph and list of both paint and brush size used to make the steps as easy to follow as possible.

Review quote
"...an impressive book that should easily fulfill the author's purpose of introducing modelers new to historical figure modeling and wargame figure painting, and expanding the knowledge base of those already involved. The level of historical detail the author provides is appreciable, and the examples and explanations of the processes are excellent."-- "Armorama"
