Problem - How to display the Zeppelins & the Ekranoplan?

On the Zvezda Facebook page boxart for their soon to be released M4A3 ( 76 ) W


On the Copper State Model Facebook page 'final renders' of their 1/32 Caudron G.III

Nice! - but all that rigging!!!
It looks like CSM have really taken up the mantle from Wingnut Wings, on 1/32 WWI aircraft!

From MiniArt - 'new model coming soon'

Certainly different - but I can't imagine there's a massive market for these - I'd have thought more suited to a resin AM maker!

From MiniArt - 'new kit coming soon'

Crew? Crew for what? Armed Crop Harvesting?

On the ICM Facebook page, renders of an upcoming unusual subject, in 1/35.
Laffly V15T - French Artillery tractor - I believe there was a resin model made of this in 1/35, but certainly this will be the first injection moulded version. ICM seem determined to be the leader in softskin models!

Ah miniart! That must be a fun place to work at :smiling5:

With a snout like that it's obvious why there are trainer wheels in the front. :tears-of-joy:

I see that John is listing some of the new 3d printed tracks from Rye Field models as a pre-order in the shop. Due later this month. Close to forty quid a set though.

I would indeed have a look Dave :smiling3:

That Border Model will be good, bet it has a high parts count, but the moulding will be top notch.

I made the Tamiya Mobelwagen years ago - a nice model, only let down by the rubber band tracks - be interesting to see what the price levels are
