IN THIS ISSUE...
Hello everyone, welcome
to the June 2018 edition
of your favourite aviation
modelling magazine!
his month it’s really all about the new
releases and features that help you
to navigate through the building and
painting of some spectacular kits that
have dropped on to the model shop
shelves over the last few months.
We begin of course with our round-up
of 1:144 kits and a build of the wonderfully
detailed AFV Club Sea King, a kit that is as
involved as it is attractive in this diminutive
Written by
Spencer Pollard
T
scale. Roy Kinsella once again takes the
reins of this project, building both kits that are
supplied in the box, one in the colours of the
Canadian Navy and the other in the famous
markings of ‘Old 66’, the helicopter than
gained worldwide attention during the Apollo
missions of the 1960s.
Moving on and up in terms of complexity
and scale, Jamie Haggo looks at the new
range of Eduard Fw190s. Replacing their
earlier, more complex releases, the new kits
cover a whole spectrum of sub-variants so we
have a number of features planned to cover
all of the bases. This month Jamie builds two
models using some of Eduard’s ‘Overtrees’,
finishing them in two distinctive colour
schemes along the way.

MODEL AIRPLANE INTERNATIONAL -
June 2018
Having dealt with WWII in 1:48, Mike
Williams then takes over to deal with that
conflict in 1:32, taking a detailed look at
the brand-new Revell 1:32 P-51D Mustang.
Revell has something of a reputation for
creating cut-price kits in this scale and
this kit is no different, offering a cheaper
alternative to both the Tamiya and Zoukei-
Mura kits for modellers keen to build this
aircraft in this larger scale. Mike builds the
kit from the box to show you what you can
expect should you wish to tackle what is to
all intents and purposes, a very fine kit.
And if that wasn’t enough, Alan Kelley
takes a step into the modern arena with
his take on the Wingman Kfir TC.2 Trainer.
Capturing the lines of this stunning looking
aircraft to perfection, Wingman’s resin and
plastic kit will push you skills to the limit, but
the results are more than worth the effort
with a replica to be proud of the pay-off for
all of you hard work.
AND FINALLY…
We take a trip to the North East of England
to visit Sword & Lance 2018. One of our
favourite shows of the year, we hope that
you enjoy seeing some of the highlights from
the event as much as we enjoyed being
there in person!
So this is the June edition of Model
Airplane International. I hope you enjoy
this issue and I hope to see you again next
month!
