ARMOUR AND AVIATION

UK-BASED modellers have recently received the excellent news that Albion Alloys will now be acting as distributor for Dora Wings and Amusing Hobby kits. The former, which is based in the Ukraine, has a growing range of aircraft subjects, including a newly tooled 1/48 Lockheed Vega 5b (see News, May 2020) and Marcel Bloch MB.151C. Japan’s Amusing Hobby produces mainly 1/35 armoured vehicle kits, with many ‘paper projects’ and experimental designs, such as the Panzerkampfwagen VII ‘Löwe’, Conqueror-based 35A034 FV 217 Badger and Centurion-derived 35A029 FV 4005 tank destroyer. Details of your nearest retailer are available from Albion’s sales department (sales@albionalloys.co.uk), while catalogues of products from both companies can be found at: www.albionhobbies.com
