Dear business friends,   The main and very important information in our May Newsletter is that the Heinkel He 177 A-3 Greif, cat.no SH48210, is now already available. Besides this model, this newsletter brings kits of two 1/72 models, SH72538 DH.94 Moth Minor ‘In war and peace over Europe and Africa’ and SH72541 Caproni Ca.312 ‘Italian Export Bomber’. While the first kit is very simple, easy to assemble and suitable for beginners and children, the second kit is intended for experienced modellers. In addition to plastic parts, it also contains a good measure of 3D-printed parts, photo etches and other accessories. As I mentioned last time, the May sets are all in 1/48 scale. The excellent rear gun turret for the B-26 Marauder stands out  among them, but the sets for the DB-7 Boston Mk.III (HK Model) or the seats for the Fw 190 kits from Tamiya are also worth noting. In June, the main new release will be the 1/72 Albacore Mk.I, and for the summer we are preparing the long-awaited 1/48 Ba...

Dear business friends,    in the April newsletter you will find more plastic model kits than we usually offer. Today we bring three brand new products, 1/72 SH72544 Mosquito Mk.XV, 1/32 SH32092 JB-2 Loon and 1/72 SH72521 WH-1 / model 139 ‘Early Dutch East Indies Bomber’. In addition, the April newsletter introduces two re-editions, 1/72 SH72192 Heinkel He 178 V-2 and 1/72 Sd.Kfz.250/1 Ausf.B(Neue Ausführung)1/72, both kits in limited quantities.    The newsletter also brings a couple of sets, most of which are 3D printed. First of all, these are sets for the 1/48 Hampden B Mk.I from ICM. For this very nice kit, we have prepared sets of defensive and offensive armament. We are also preparing a few more sets for the 1/48 Hampden.    The kit that is a bit behind the schedule is the long-awaited Heinkel He 177A-3 Greif. We have all the plastic mouldings ready for kit SH48210. But we are missing the rest, the box, instructions, decals and etches. We are working hard on all of these. We assu...
