If your an avid wargamer and you like building terrain, then this
is the book for you. I bought Volume 1(Winter Wargaming) about two years ago and loved the
book so this latest book(Volume 2 Mediterranean Wargaming) was a must buy and Im not disappointed.
The book is a detailed guide to the work of Pat Smith and all the work he has completed over
the years. To cut a long story short a number of years ago Pat decided to collate all his
fantastic work on the wargamingwithsilverwhistle.blogspot.com and put it into a book. Volume 1
was so successful he decided to do another and thus my blog post.
Ok, so what exactly do get for your £20 of money ? You get a 148 page book of glossy pictures
to drool over and in depth step by step guides to building and painting terrain. There is also
information on painting figures and vehicles.
The exact contents includes the chapters:
- Â Introduction.
- Â Materials.
- Â Terrain mat and flexible roads.
- Â Mountain terrain.
- Â Bridges.
- Â Buildings.
- Â Damaged and destroyed buildings.
- Â Olive groves.
- Â Terraced hills,pillbox and blockhouse.
- Â Vineyards.
- Â Orchards and cypress trees.
- Â Terrain clutter.
- Â Figure painting.
- Â Vehicles.
- Â Guest painter- Moiterei talks Italian.
- Â The scene is set.
- Â Links.
What really sells this book is the straight forward descriptions and methods
of how the terrain is created and with such everyday tools. Nothing in this book
is unachievable to the average model maker/wargamer and is a true inspiration to
just start building and gluing.
I cannot wait for the next volume, well done.
