Welcome to our October issue! Now that summer has gone (for those of us in the northern latitudes), the temperatures are starting to drop, the weather changes, and those of you that have enjoyed the summer sports (golf, boating, etc.) are getting your last sessions in before winter arrives. Well, your modeling projects are still waiting for you, and there are new projects on the horizon. Tamiya, Revell-Monogram, Hasegawa, Accurate Miniatures, and many others have interesting releases coming for the winter months. Dust off your workbenches and let's get some modeling done!
