SAMPLE ISSUE
plucked from our back issues,
representing various sectors of
the hobby.
If you’re not a regular reader,
or if this is the first time you’ve
seen
AMW,
I hope you’ll be
pleasantly surprised by the
general quality…not just of the
models themselves, but also the
step-by-step and finished model
photography.
Since its launch in 2010,
AMW
has strived to provide high-
quality builds and history/
reference articles; if variety is
your desire, no other magazine
has such an all-encompassing
selection of subjects. Yes,
aircraft are our main focus, but
one can also enjoy builds from
the military, figure, maritime,
auto, real space and sci-fi genres.
We also occasionally publish
special supplements, which
focus on a newly tooled kit,
along with valuable reference
material on the real subject; a
perfect example is that of the
1/72 scale Beaufighter history
text and colour profiles (the most
accurate available) included in
this sample issue.
Besides the exclusive Airfix
coverage, we also explore
products from other major
manufacturers, such as
Hasegawa, Eduard, Revell,
Special Hobby and Italeri, as
well as those from limited run
firms and ‘cottage industry’
start-ups. Our extensive review
and news pages examine the
latest in after-market releases,
with resin, dedcals, photo-
etched metal, paint masks and
reference books all featuring.
No other monthly modelling
magazine offers this much
quality
and
quantity, and I’m
sure you’ll agree after seeing the
following content.
