EDITORIAL
Editor
t the start of
the year I tend
to look back
over the last year and plan the things I
want to do over the course year ahead.
Now to be honest looking back my modelling last
year, I totalled just three models and two of those were
Science Fiction, which I occasionally build to relax,
and both of these had been partly, started for some
time.
My plans for the next year are far more advanced
and though so far no new kit announcement has really
floated my boat I have a number of projects that have
lingered on my to do pile for far to long.
I also think about the shows I have attended and
one that stood out for me was the worthy winner of the
SAM publications trophy at Telford for our favourite
show was the North Somerset Show at the Helicopter
Museum in Weston Super Mare. Now this event was
held in an English seaside town during summer so no
surprise that we had a deluge that lasted the whole day
and led to the unfortunate cancellation of a number
of planned events but did the organisers let it get them
down?
Not a bit of it we had a great show and all the
visitors who attended had a really enjoyable day.
For the year ahead SAM Publications is planning
on attending more events around the UK than ever
before (Invites to the editorial address please) and I am
certainly hoping our return visit to the coast on the 3rd
July might be in better weather.
Finally the magazine, this time last year I was just
someone who stuck bits of plastic together and then
wrote about it and then much to my surprise I was
chosen as the new editor, and boy has the last year
been a sharp learning curve!
I promised from the start that over the year the title
would evolve and indeed it has, and from the many
positive comments we have received I think most of
you have liked the changes that have been made.
Now for the next year my main priority is to
continue to get the mix of articles, reviews and news
in all scales and time periods that make our title so
unique. I also hope to introduce some new names that
have never written for a magazine before but whose
models have really impressed me at shows.
So goodbye to 2015 welcome to 2016 and I hope
you all enjoy your magazine this year as much as you
did last year.
