ModelArt Australia - Issue 99 

Modelart via Red Roo Models

 

 

Just as it was predicted that video would kill the radio star, it was predicted that internet modelling forums would kill modelling magazines. Nether of these it would seem has come to pass. Issue 99 of Modelart Australia has come to use via Red Roo Models a supplier of Australian related modelling items, and a supporter of Britmodeller for a while now. I must admit to not being a great fan of modelling magazines over the years and generally only pick one up at an airport etc if travelling. This issue is 66 pages long and deals with a wide variety of genres and modelling topics. Kits looked at include the impressive new Africa Twin from Tamiya, and the Airfix 1/48 P-51D. For car modellers here is a build of a Ford F100, and for ship modeller the IJN Mikasa. For the aircraft modeller there is a look at converting Trumpeter's Skywarrior to an A3-D2, and a tales of two Fw 190s.  As to modelling techniques there is an interesting article comparing Paint chipping solutions. For an Aussie slant there is a look at the CAC CA-18 Mustang, and a report from the South Australian Scale model Expo. The magazine also covers the normal areas such as new releases, and model news.

 

 

 

 

Conclusion

If you like a good read from a modelling magazine with a slant towards Australian subjects then the magazine is available for world wide subscription at what seems a reasonable rate. 

 

Recommended.
