    I was curios as to the accuracy and general helpfulness of these. If anyone has used them, some input would be well apreciated :)

    I haven't heard of them to be honest. I have heard of Ship Craft series books. I have one on the Queen Elizabeth.

    My book is nice. Lots and lots of photographs. There are color ones of models built, side profiles of color schemes, and line drawings. There are no hull sections or ribs though. Overall a nice reference for the location of items and color schemes. I don't regret buying mine in the least.

    The one I have on the KGV battleships is pretty, and useful as outlined by Herr Butts.
