Joseph Osborn Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Floyd's Kiowa book is in the new Squadron flier I got in the mail today. It's featured very prominently with a big picture on the first page of the books. Yay Floyd! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) Is there a release date for these two books? My OH-58D book should be available within the next week or two. Joseph, thanks. It took a long time to get them to approve it. I proposed the original one in 1998, but I think the book is pretty nice. I hope to see more models of the Warrior.

Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 YAHOOOO! Today is the official release date of the Kiowa Warrior Walk Around. I have my copies in my hand. Looks very nice to me. It is exactly what I had in my mind's eye. I hope you all like it. Let me know what you think. Good, bad, would have liked to seen and anything else you think I should know. Constructive criticism is always appreciated. I'm sure some of you will not like that there are no line drawings in it. I did that on purpose because I felt that those line drawings are taken as accurate and they are not they are normally representative. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cobrahistorian Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Hopefully the success of your book will motivate them to hurry up and get mine out! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Hopefully the success of your book will motivate them to hurry up and get mine out! I hope so too. There is no good book on the Apache. I think it helped that I had my friend who sets up magazines and manipulates photos for a living size, correct and convert them before I sent them. That is the only reason this one came out before yours. That made it a simple plug and play for them. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
