O
inspiration and
information
ne of the cornerstones on
which SMMI is built is that it
appeals to modellers of all
abilities, whether they
are just starting out in the hobby, or are
connoisseurs of the art of sticking plastic
and resin together. To that end we
always have an eclectic mix of subjects
in every issue, with contributions
from modellers from all sides of
the spectrum, in order to provide
inspiration and information to
help you make the most from
your hobby. Another important
aspect is our ‘how-to guides’, that
We Recommend
I hope are becoming a rich source
of encouragement to try both
new and established modelling
techniques to add to your
enjoyment. Of course our news
sections are also one of the key
ingredients of the magazine,
and one of the things that
makes SMMI stand out, and
whilst we don’t try to compete
with the ‘instant access’ of
the Internet, to have new and
forthcoming products in print
SMMI Choice
is a valuable asset! We are also always looking
to encourage new contributors, as we feel
that it’s important to bring fresh ideas and
features to you from around the globe, as well
as maintaining our core of regular writers. So
this month we once again have a superb range
of features to bring you, from World
War II, via the jungles of Vietnam
and the Cold War, with articles on
the Panzer, M48, M113 and M60 to
name but a few. So I hope that you
continue to enjoy all that SMMI
has to offer!
Happy Modelling!
