To whet all our appetites Mark Peacock has sent us shots of a couple of the models featured in Valiant Wings' forthcoming study of the Beaufighter and their revised modelling guide to the Do 335.

Airframe Album No 14-The Bristol Beaufighter and Airframe & Miniature No 9 (Updated & Expanded) – The Dornier Do 335 are both about to go into design and production. We are still aiming for early November publication.

While we are waiting, here are images of some of the model builds in both books-Steve Evans’ 1/32 Zoukei-Mura Do 335 A-12 completed in record time and Libor Jekl’s 1/72 Airfix Beaufighter TF.X, just in case you have not seen these on our Facebook page.

While I am on, the reprinted Airframe Constructor No 2-Building The Heinkel He 219 is now available. As mentioned before this is a limited run reprint so anyone who missed it first time round is advised to get their order in fast-it won’t be around for long.

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.
