AFV Modeller #50 Jan/Feb 2010 |
Reviewed By Ken McDevitt, IPMS# 46356 |
MSRP: $9.13 US dollars = £6.00 UK Website: www.afvmodeller.com Description: From the AFV Modeller website: "AFV Modeller is the leading visual bi-monthly magazine for armoured vehicle modellers. AFV Modeller showcases the work of the very best modellers from around the world, shows techniques on how to achieve the best results and offers unique references." This is an 8.25 by 11.625 inch magazine with 64 pages between the covers and produced on heavy stock paper. Other than the 1-page Table of Contents, the entire magazine is comprised of articles and there are no advertisements to be found. Table of Contents:
This is an impressive article in that it not only demonstrates the Hairspray Technique, but also is an illustrated step-by step "how to" on advanced weathering. There are 66 photos that can be followed to learn these techniques. Article Example: "One Sixteenth Superking" by David Parker David aptly explains the problem of the radio rack and contents, suggests a solution and provides lots of pictures of the process. Nothing more to say about this except it is an exquisite scratch build. I'm wishing I had the first 5 installments I highly recommend this publication for the masterful techniques and results and in the way they are presented. Thanks to IPMS USA and AFV Modeller, ltd for the privilege of doing this review. |
