Welcome
as it really been a whole
year since we published
our first
Scale Modelling
– Step-by-Step?
The magazine was hugely
successful and received warmly
by beginners and those returning
to the hobby after a long break,
but even old hands found
something to inspire them…
or valued the reminder of basic
skills often forgotten. This year
we took the decision to cater for
more experienced modellers who
wish to ‘up their game’ in terms
of using after-market products
and more advanced techniques.
Scenic modelling is something
we can all appreciate when
studying a well-produced
diorama or vignette, and
the genre is explored here in
terms of methods, scratch-
building, weathering and how to
portray natural and man-made
environments in a convincing
manner. Nothing enlivens a good
model like a well-executed base
and surrounding scenery.
Many modellers will
acknowledge the fact that our
hobby has been invigorated
massively by the advent of
photo-etched metal and resin
detail parts, mixed media kits
and other forms of after-market
products. The materials and
their employment do need
extra thought, practice and, in
some cases, special tools and
techniques. Beginners or even
fairly well seasoned modellers
have shied away from such
pursuits, due to their perceived
difficulty or complexity.
Here, we seek to demystify the
process and provide builders
with the confidence and
inspiration to take the plunge…
and get much more from their
hobby in the process.
We also explore the realm of
special finishes, such as wood on
biplanes, whitewashed armour
and bare metal aircraft. The skills
and materials involved in these
methods are relatively cheap, but
can make the world of difference
to a basic styrene kit and bring
much artistic satisfaction.
Our author and modeller, Toni
Canfora, has yet again provided
sage advice and high-quality
instruction. For those who have
not seen Toni’s work before in
Airfix Model World
or elsewhere,
this Swedish-Italian is a founder
of the Nordic Edge modelling
collective, whose style is
emulated worldwide. Toni’s skills
lie not just in fine modelling and
painting, but also in imparting
his knowledge in an easy-to-
understand manner. I must
congratulate Toni on bringing us
yet another fine body of content.
