Hello Again,

Certain Japanese publications do have step-by-step tutorials I find helpful.
One particular example I can think of (since it is sitting on my desk as I
type) is Military Modelling Manual no. 11, How to Build Tiger I. Although in
Japanese, the photos are really (REALLY) helpful and certainly breaks the
language barrier.

It first shows the reader what tools were needed, what P.E. sets were used,
what kits were involved with the completion of the final product. Then it
goes on to tell you how to align the road wheels correctly, how to correct
flaws in the kit, how to make sure the gun barrel was perpendicular to the
mantle, how to make a flawless gun barrel from kit supplied parts, each step
in making Zimmerit, priming, painting and weathering. All with photos
illustrating each step, with how each tool was used.

That is what we need online. With the internet, I believe such articles can
really help newbies and not intimidate them.

Sincerely,
-=Yc.W=-
