The traditional Tank Modeling Guide series has focused on painting/weathering techniques for specific items (vehicles). However, this time, it's an explanation of "individual painting methods for each paint." Modelers and writers prefer different paints. Taking into account these varying preferences, this edition centers on painting techniques specific to each paint, aiming for a "deeper understanding and improvement" of the chosen paints, along with introducing corresponding weathering techniques. It's also an opportunity for those curious about other paints they haven't used before, sparking a "new challenge."
