Your New Home For Amazing Automotive Modelling & Diecast Collecting!

It's my absolute pleasure to bring you the spring edition of Model Car, Truck & Motorcycle World Magazine, and I am also delighted to be the new editor. We have made a few changes here and there, as you will see by the cover and the very striking Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, and we will continue to refine the content as we go to make the magazine the place to go for the best in plastic modelling and diecast collecting. We have some excellent features to bring you in this issue, including the Italeri Volvo F12 Intercooler and the Zvezda Kamaz 65115 Dump Truck as well as a look at the new 1/50 diecast Cavallino truck range, and plans are in place for even more trucking in the next issue. On two wheels we have the Tamiya Ducati Superleggera V4, and we also look at the Italeri BMW 329 GR5 and the Revell Martini Porsche 934 RSR. We also have the iconic Revell James Bond Aston Martin with all its gadgets on show and some excellent step-by-step projects with the Tamiya Mazda Roadster using the new Ammo Cobra Paints and a look at building the Revell Ferrari Californian. So, be sure to get your copy now, and happy modelling! Andy Evans, Editor

Model Farmer & Commercial Machinery World

Model Farmer & Commercial Machinery World is the UK's best magazine for collectors of agricultural equipment models in all scales, focusing on all age groups from kids to serious adult collectors.

Each issue keeps the reader up to date on releases and announcements from the various model manufacturers and kit producers, both for agricultural and construction related themes and actively welcomes our readers to contribute stories about their collection, or specific projects that they have undertaken. Filled with diecast model reviews, giving the lowdown on the latest replicas to hit the market along with show reports from the UK and Europe covering some of the biggest and most recognised events.

Plastic model kits will be featured in the magazine, with In the Box articles showing the contents of each kit before model building experts take over to highlight their build and painting techniques. Conversions and modifications to existing models will give a taste of the skills of hobbyists to create that one-off exclusive model with How To tutorials covering various weathering approaches. Find out about other collectors and their collecting habits with the Collector Profile stories providing interesting insights into the mind of a collector.

There is a growing range of remote-control models being produced, both from model manufacturers and custom builders so we will endeavour to look into what is currently available along with reports on converting static models into remote control vehicles.

Warpaint no 142 - PRE ORDER
Dassault Mirage F1

56 pages * £19.00 * over 12 pages Colour Profiles * 200 Images *detailed plans*

During the 1960s, Dassault commenced development of what would be-come the Mirage F1 as a private venture, alongside the larger Mirage F2. Work on the F1 eventually took precedence over the more costly F2, which was cancelled during the late 1960s. The Armée de l'Air took great interest in the fledgling F1 to meet its requirement for an all-weather interceptor aircraft.

The Mirage F1 was of similar size to the Mirage III and Mirage 5 and was powered by the same SNECMA Atar engine that had been used on the larg-er Dassault Mirage IV, however, unlike its predecessors, it had the layout of a swept wing, but mounted high on the fuselage, and a conventional tail sur-face as used by the F2. Although it had a smaller wingspan than the Mirage III, the Mirage F1 nevertheless proved to be superior to its predecessor, car-rying more fuel while possessing a shorter take-off run and greater manoeu-vrability. This latest addition to the Warpaint series includes all the usual ref-erence and historical material that has made the series the go-to source for modellers and aviation enthusiasts alike. This book is written by Andy Evans and is superbly illustrated by Sam Pearson.

* Complete and detailed history
* Scale plans
* In detail pictures
* Pages of superb colour camouflage drawings and photography
* Complete production list
* Squadrons, units and individual aircraft serials and codes
* Comprehensive specification

Colour Conundrum no 3 84 pages

Guideline Publications is pleased to announce the third 'Colour Conundrum Compendium'.

This volume collates two groups of articles, the first dealing with the RAF's 'exotic' Tropical Land and Sea Schemes and colours from 1933-1945, while the second deals with the unusual RAF Photographic Reconnaissance Schemes and colours from 1939-1945. As with Compendium No.2, this volume contains new material that has not been previously published in Scale Aircraft Modelling. These two new Conundrums contain material that dovetails into the Tropical Land and Sea Schemes section in such a way that the result is a volume containing more information on the development and possible use of these schemes than has ever appeared in any one place before.
