 The Fairey Albacore kit is nearing completion. The decals are already in production. They will offer four different camouflage schemes. Rendered images of the cockpit are also included.

 For the 1/48 DB-7C Boston by HK Model, we have prepared three sets.     The detailed wheels set 4518 combines cast wheels with 3D printed perforated hubs and alternative hubcaps.     Set 4519 offers weapons for the upper and lower gun turrets. For the upper turret, you can choose a 7.7 mm machine gun in single or twin mount. Here, you must refer to documentation for the specific aircraft. A single 7.7 mm machine gun was mounted in the lower turret. This is missing from the kit.    The last set is the Mk.IX bomb sight. This was located in the nose of British DB-7Cs.    

 The upcoming 1/72 kit SH72546 Focke Wulf Fw 189A ‘Owls over the Eastern Front’ will offer four aircraft from the Eastern Front. In the decal sheet, you will find markings for two Luftwaffe aircraft, a captured VVS Red Army aircraft, and a post-war Royal Norwegian Air Force aircraft, originally a Luftwaffe aircraft deployed in the north of the Eastern Front. 

 In the tool shop, the mold inserts for the 1/48 Baltimore are being assembled. One of the inserts is complete, the second one awaits assembly.

  After building classic Moth Minors, the Club of Happy Modelers also built a Moth Minor Coupé from kit SH72504 as part of their group build project. You can see the results in the photos. Ondra also included one classic Moth Minor from kit SH72494 in the photoshoot, but the photos are so nice that it would be a shame not to publish them. And here, one of the Modelers has already acquired the new boxing SH72538 , so more completed models are certainly on the way.
