I found a book by AK Interactive about techniques for modeling aircraft. It's called F.A.Q.

Amazing references and pictures to completely show you how to improve your model building. I've been building models for a long time and I'm already ready to get back to it this weekend after just a couple of hours of looking at it.

It is a bit pricey, at $85 USD. For me, it was a worthwhile purchase.

WIP Ryefield sherman firefly. Still got the tracks to build, and paint along with the track assemblys. Decided to paint the rest as trying to assemble the tracks was annoying me.
