Military Modelling - Volume 47 No. 12

In this issue

Welcome to Military Modelling Magazine, Volume 47, Number 12. I shall begin with my now annual reminder that this magazine promotes and encourages a hobby, nothing more, nothing less. This is a hobby that brings people together from all over the world, people who share a common interest; while it is a fact that some are better at it than others, everyone also has the right to build what they want, how they want it! Some like to show their work off on websites, others are lucky enough to have it published in print while the majority of them simply build, paint and display for their own pleasure. Some modellers spend months researching and carefully preparing their bench for their next venture while others go to their local hobby shop, pick up a random kit and build it on the dining room table on a Sunday afternoon. My point is that there are no good or bad modellers – just modellers - and that’s just how it should be!
This month sees a new section introduced; ‘Readers Showcase’ gives everyone of all standards and ages the chance to see their pride and joy in print. Just send your images to the e-mail below and at least a dozen per month will be selected for inclusion. Feel free to contact me on the e-mail below if you have an idea for an article.
