H
aving just returned from
ModelKraft 2019 at Milton
Keynes, I must say that the
sheer number of visitors
and traders made this perhaps the best
one-day show I have been to in a very long
while! The SAM Publications stand
was a busy place to be and it
was again great to meet friends
both old and new and have a
chinwag about our magazines
and modelling in general. So, hats
off the ModelKraft organisers,I
am already looking forward to
next year! But returning to the
magazine, this month once again
we have a full issue, with plenty
to inspire and edify your AFV
interests! Matt Edwards kicks us off with a
superb step-by-step ‘Desert Warrior’ build,
hotly followed by another excellent offering
on how to build and paint the 1:35 AFV Club
M18 Hellcat.
Also, this month look out for Iwan Hughes
‘Fury’ build Robert Pieper’s ‘Cougar’, and
Kayhan Kayar’s Chi-Ha, Plus this month we
also get stuck in the mud with a diorama
from Ray Deakin, and Andy Renshaw shows
you ‘how-to’ make tarpaulins using two-
art epoxy. All this is backed up with our
unrivalled military ad figure news pages,
which make SMMI the modellers
must have magazine. So all that
remains for me to say is…..
Happy Modelling
