The Factory Publishing have been collaborating with Johan Lexell of Bison Decals on the artwork and he’ll be releasing sheets of decals in 1/35th and 1/72nd scale based on the illustrations in the book. It is hoped that this will be an ongoing cooperation with books on the Cromwell and Centaur and the Hermann Goering Division in Sicily being released before the end of this year.
