Albatros Productions kick off 2016 with the spring issue of their quarterly WWI aviation modelling magazine. Along with feature articles and reviews of the latest kits and accessories, there's a special archive section devoted to the Albatros B.II to coincide with WNW's beautiful new kit. Star of the show for me is Part 3 of Harry Woodman's revised "Modelling Vintage Aircraft in Plastic Card" - every bit an essential read as the original classic book was back in the 1970s.
OUR SPRING EDITION!
"The latest WS contains the usual top-notch and varied content our readers have come to expect for over 31 years. Harry Woodman’s much revised ‘Modelling Vintage Aircraft in Plastic Card’ series continues and covers fuselage construction; wing-forming techniques; tail surfaces and airscrews; the piece is supported by several sketches, plenty of model photos and some great archive images. David A Byers describes the classic Roold aviators’ helmet; there's a picture postcard album page, and our 16th Great War Paint begins a two-part look at the Caudron G.lll with a magnificent collection of colour profiles across the issue’s centrespread. Elsewhere, Greg VanWyngarden reviews some amazing WWI German movies available on the web guaranteed to astonish enthusiasts with their quality and variety. ln this issue’s Kitbag are reviews of the Wingnut Wings post-war ‘Ninak’ and an extented appraisal of their recently-issued Albatros B.ll (a three page photo archive devoted to the type is another main feature) and we take a candid look at Merit’s first 1:24 scale releases. The latest WWI aeronautical figures and accessories are also covered in this packed issue".
