Military Modelling International Magazine Vol. 46 No 13 Edizione posteriore

Vol.46 No.13 issue of Military Modelling Magazine rounds 2016 off packed to the gunnels with a diverse range of subjects. The lead article is an outstanding diorama featuring a Panhard 178 on rails complete with a wintery feel followed by some modification work to a Dragon 1/35 StuG III Ausf.G. Another diorama, this time featuring an old classic also deservedly features on the front cover in the shape of Radek Pituch’s M4A3 Sherman. Our, now monthly figure feature has a familiar Hollywood face and the first of two articles which commemorates the 75th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor follows. The first is an excellent rendition of the USS West Virginia in 1/700 before she was damaged on December 7, 1941 followed by a US Navy Grumman Wildcat which has been exposed to help keep the creative juices flowing.
Mark Bannerman presents something a little different in the shape of the Praying Mantis and Alexander Pedan rounds this packed edition with his superb Mirror Models Twin-Boom Wrecker.
