IN miniature

This is the 3rd issue of the year for 2025 (our 39th year of publication). As usual I have to thank those people who have kindly allowed us to reproduce their articles and photos this issue, in particular the following - Andrew Wetzlich, Gary Wickham, David Harvey, John Hopton, Geoff Kubank, Peter May, Mick Mirkovic & the AHMWA. Don't forget that all photos and information credited to these individuals are subject to copyright and cannot be reproduced without their written permission. I also am grateful to Ley Reynolds for the book news.

This issue has more of Gary Wickham's excellent modelling and review articles from his 'Scalespot' website. Highly recommended to go to his site at www.Scalespot.com to see the latest. For Gary's articles use the 'back' button to get back to the index page.

This issue is very heavy on aircraft material apart from Andrew Wetzlich's images from the Australian Armour and Artillery Museum. I do not claim to be knowledgable enough on other subjects such as Civilian and military vehicles, ships, figures, trains etc to write on those subjects. As no other members have sent me material in those areas, there is nothing to publish. I would clearly like to run such material, so if you have any subjects you would like to write about for publication, or walkarounds of such, please contact me through the Editorial email address (Hornet133@hotmail.com) so we can make arrangements to pass it to me.

All and any contributions to this publication are always welcomed, so send any material to the editorial address (P.O Box and email listed at the end of this page), or hand it to me at club meetings. This especially applies with several of our long running series having concluded in recent issues. So additional articles would be very welcome.
