“Curieux, l'auteur a préféré aborder le sujet par thèmes et non chronologiquement. Du coup la lecture de l'ouvrage nécessite des retours en arrière ou à sauter quelques pages. Point positif l'iconographie est abondante mais laisse une impression de fouillis. Les photos sont corrects sans être excellentes. Les profils couleurs sont moyens et certaines légendes sont erronées (Quid du texte ? Je suis loin d'avoir tout lu...). Étonnamment, pour un ouvrage consacré au camouflage des panzers, il y a très peu de photos couleurs ! Gros travail de recherche qui aurait gagné en clarté pour le lecteur si plusieurs volumes lui avait été consacré. Certains aspects du fond sont intéressants mais la forme, à tous les niveaux, est déplorable (flèches et texte sur beaucoup de photos, photos qui se chevauchent, trop à mon goût, etc.). Malgré la taille de l'ouvrage il manque aussi une planche ou deux avec les références des couleurs officielles, appliquées en usine, et celles utilisées sur le terrain (certes, difficilement exhaustives pour ces dernières). S'il y a bien un sujet rapidement compréhensible par l'image c’est bien celui-là. En résumé, intéressant mais le sujet méritait un peu plus de rigueur.”

“Extremely comprehensive coverage of markings and cammo. Could use more color as it can be hard to visualize some things in black and white but otherwise the go to book on the subject”

“Honest and in-depth book. Promised much and gave more. For reference it's excellent and an easy read. I found it the most in-depth book I've bought to date. A few more colour photographs would have been nice but that's the only quibble I have.”

“This book holds so much information the reader was unaware of, it requires considerable study over a period of time to be assimilated properly; I would be unlikely to model German armour without checking with this book first. Most images were unfamiliar to me, the early war period in particular; if the author cannot confirm any detail, he will proffer an opinion but he will say that it is an opinion, not necessarily correct, however I would have considerable confidence in his view given the massive effort that this work required to complete. I have no hesitation in recommending this book to any student of German vehicles, particularly the model maker.”
