The Big One - literally! - and the release that's set the modelling world alight as Wingnut Wings move onto WW2 subjects. Richard Alexander has sent details of Wingnut Wings' astounding new 1:32 Lancasters that Michael Satin announced in the Forum recently, ending speculation that they are based on work done for the Dambusters movie project.

So if they are being honest that this has no connection to any work done for the movie, then the implication is that the pretense of keeping to the WWI niche isn't a hard and fast rule and there is a possibility they might explore other WWII subjects.

Hi Shell
It's a rather exciting implication, isn't it!
All the best

I think you'll find that the only thing Wingnut Wings has in common with Weta Workshop and Wingnut Films is that they are all owned by Sir Peter Jackson.
And - dang! That big bird looks spectacular....love the surface effects.

That sound you hear is executives at HK Models jumping from a high ledge....
This will set the modeling world on its ear, just as their WW1 aircraft have.
