Issue One orders to be posted out!

For for buyers of Cold War Aircraft Modeller.

If you have ordered a copy to be posted out and have already paid, your copy will be going in the post at the end of this week. Sorry for the slight delay, but I have to finish some work for Tamiya Magazine first and then I'll be able to deal with my own stuff. All issues will be posted First Class, so you should receive your copies, shortly.

Thanks for your patience!

One Man's Junk


Now that the first book is winging its around the world, I can start to release details on the second book "One Man's Junk". This will be another 40-page book dedicated to diorama building and will cover three dioramas "The Dig", One Man's Junk and "Then and Now". With a bit of luck, this will be the first of two books under this title, the second one being a complete, in-depth look at my workshop diorama that I built a couple of years ago. The book will be ready to go within the next month, hopefully being debuted at the KMK Scale World show in September and then on sale at both Euro Militaire and Scale Model Challenge in Eindhoven. Here. for your delectation is the brand new cover...

 Back From The Printers!!!

Well, after three month's of work, countless hours and many sleepless nights(!), my first, self published book, is back from the printers! I can't believe that I have done what I set out to do and that I'm so pleased with the outcome. Now that they are back, the copies for those of you that have made a payment will be put in the post over the next few days, or placed in the delivery pile. I will hold on to the others until confirmation of payment is received, or until further orders are placed.

Thank you all so much - I hope that you enjoy my very first book!!!

ONE MAN'S JUNK

Some teasers from the next book which will be on sale in time for Euro Militaire...

 

Cold War Aircraft Modeller


I'm now in the process of dealing with the designs for my new project and I'm testing cover formats that I will use for each issue that I publish. This is the prototype for the magazine and will give a good idea of how I want this magazine to look and how I hope the lines of the design will work. The content should be ignored, it is just there to illustrate the design - unless of course that's what you want to see in one of the issues! No.1 will be available at this years IPMS Nationals and will feature a what I hope will be some really cool features that fans of this era will enjoy. Well, that's the plan! :D
