Chin-Up Replacement
While Eduard produces an aftermarket engine for its 1/48 Tempests, CMK has produced an alternative, replicating just the upper section of the Napier Sabre, which allows the type’s characteristic ‘chin’ radiator to be retained in full.
PORSCHE'S TRUNK
While Zvezda’s initial Zvezda’s 1/35 Sd.Kfz.184 Jagdpanzer (tank destroyer) featured the Ferdinand, its second release depicts the later ‘Elefant’.
EXQUISITE DISH
Hauler has re-boxed Extratech’s superb resin/photo-etched (PE) brass 1/72 German FuSE-65 Würzburg-Riese radar system.
LIGHT AND AGILE
This Airfix re-boxing of Academy’s 1/35 Pz.Kpfw.35(t) includes markings options for Wehrmacht-and Slovak-operated versions of the Czechoslovakian LT vz. 35 tank
SNAPPY JEEPS
Although designed for wargaming, this twin pack of Italeri’s ‘fast assembly’ 1/72 Willys Jeeps is an ideal beginner’s project as the vehicles can be constructed without glue, plus the green styrene means painting could also be forgone if desired.
Cannon-Toting Gustavs
Polish decal specialist Exito has released the first collection in a series dedicated to Wiener Neustädter Flugzeugwerke-built Bf 109G-10s, with three examples of the engine-mounted 30mm cannon-equipped U4 sub-variant.
Bright-Tailed Herc'
The second set in Xtradecal’s celebration of specially marked C-130s features 47 Squadron’s stunning 100th anniversary paintwork, with its striking red/yellow/blue tail and rear fuselage, with the black/yellow fuselage cheat line.
African Tail
Modellers wanting a different scheme for their Boeing 747-400s should consider this beautiful V1 Decals offering, which depicts British Airways’ G-BNLO in the striking tail livery created by Ndebele artist Emmly Masanabo, with its bold geometric shapes in blue, yellow, red and green.
Desert Shark Mouths
DK Decals’ P-40 series continues with this splendid offering that covers 16 Kittyhawk Mk.I and MK.III airframes, all clad in standard Mid Stone/Dark Earth/Azure Blue camouflage.
TRACK AND TRUCK
Diorama modellers will appreciate this MiniArt release as it combines parts for a 1/35 European open-topped railway wagon and length of track with an assortment of metal drums and five Wehrmacht figures, posed as if loading the railcar.
