Vacforms and biplanes . . two words that put fear into most modellers who have yet to tackle either. Candice Uhlir takes on both with her magnificent Sierra Scale 1/48 Vacformed AEG G.IV bomber from WWI. First-time contributor Pedro Nuno Soares gives a fine description of building and painting a colourful Sopwith Salamander that will go a long way to allay any remaing fears of doing these elegant aircraft. Dennis Ugulano takes us one step closer to his personal millenium goal of 100 WW1 aircraft built by the year 2000 with what must be around number 95 or 96. ... will he make it? Stay tuned. The build articles conclude with a pair of WWII classics, the Hurricane by contributing editor Chris Bucholtz and the Wildcat by another first-time contributor, Mike Muth. We round this issue off with our usual collection of first looks and new releases. |
