Kow Yokoyama’s Maschinen Krieger originally debuted in the pages of Hobby Japan in 1982 under the name SF3D, blending a hard sci-fi story with photos of original scratch built models. The resulting series created by Yokoyama and Hiroshi Ichimura would inspired dozens of plastic kits, an untold number of garage kits, and lots of books and other merchandise. After copyright issues hampered SF3D in the late ‘80s, the series returned in the late ‘90s under the new name: Maschinen Krieger. 

As the name suggests, this book is packed full of modeling advice and walk-throughs for Maschinen Krieger enthusiasts. Lots of photos (and all in color!) means that even if you don't speak Japanese, most of the processes are still easy to follow and can help up your model making game. While lots of the models and designs in this will be familiar to Ma.k fans, this book also includes a variety of customized or fully scratch-built models built by Yokohama, ranging from an ALIEN spacesuit to a heavily modified Starship Troopers soft vinyl kit. Full color, softcover.
