ICM Holding look set to delight Luftwaffe modellers with a highly detailed quarterscale Do 215 - hopefully just the first in a series of "Flying Pencils".

Hi Steffen

I so wish ICM well with this one! From what I heard from those that had seen early test-shots, they had a truly superb Fw 189 all set to go before they backed down in the face of competition - something that will forever rank among the modelling "almosts" alongside the Accurate Minaiatures Beaufighter.

So... fingers crossed this time!

All the best

Rowan

Hi Jessie

Although, to be fair, ("banana" fuselage notwithstanding) HobbyCraft did a better job on the tail than Classic Airframes...

All the best

They also announced 1/48 Do17Z, though I'd prefer early E/F or M/P variants.

Hi Sergey

That's great news! I've got my fingers crossed for the early versions too.

All the best
