The U.S. Half-Track variants although available as generally good models in 1/35th scale, do require a fair amount of reference to clarify details. Here's news of the Second Volume of AJ-Press' book on the subject.

The publication opens with the second part of a chapter describing Half-Track weapon carrier versions. All its versions and variants are presented in 75 pages of drawings, along with a wide collection of photographs. The next chapter characterizes further development of those vehicle versions, which didn't go into mass production, all illustrated with photographs and sketches. The following chapter describes combat service of the Half-Track.

The book also contains a chapter about camouflage and markings of different Half-Track versions, which refers to 12 colour plates. The Modeling section contains a list of models and accessories.

I still need to pick up the first book, but this looks like more good stuff Jim. This series from AJ Press has been quite excellent from the few examples I've been able to personally look at.
