irst off, can I say a huge
thank you to everyone
who stopped by the SAM
Publications stand at
IPMS Scale Modelworld.
It was as ever, great to see friends both
old and new and to receive so many
positive and complimentary words
about SMMI, and it’s good to know
your thoughts as we continue to grow
this ever-popular title. Also, it’s a real
pleasure this month to bring you another
of our occasional warship builds, and we
remain one of the few magazines to feature
both warship news and warship builds, as we
know this corner of the military modelling
hobby is vibrant and well supported. So,
here we have a German Schnellboot From
SMMI debutant Rafał Zbigniew Lebioda as
he builds the 1:35 Italeri S-38 kit, and what a
build it is. It quite made my eyes water at the
detail and weathering on this model, not to
mention the quite stunning deck planking.
We hope to bring you more from this genre
in 2020. Another high spot this month is
our own Matt Edwards Soviet Super Gun,
with his take on the recent 1:35 Zvezda 2S35
‘Koalitsiya’ Self Propelled Howitzer! Also look
out for Michael Franz ‘Heavy Recovery’ build
of the 1:35 Panzershop VT-72B. Also, can I on
behalf of everyone on the SMMI team wish
you the compliments of the season, and look
forward to you company in 2020. So, all that
remains for me to say is, as always…..
Happy Modelling
