What's New in 2008
Modeling the U.S. Army in WWII

May

April

  • I'm squeeeeking in a pre-AMPS peek at the final stages of my just completed "Mail Call for the Sons of Thor." These are still in-progress photos. I'll shoot some better photos of the finished diorama and post them soon.
  • And here is my report back from AMPS 2008. It was a great show!

March

Well, this month is going to be slim, since I'm trying to get a couple of things done in time for my first trip to the AMPS International Show, held this year at the WW2 Victory Museum in Auburn, IN from April 10-12. I'm looking forward to the chance to meet many of you there! But in the meantime, I have gotten around to examining DML's U.S. Armored Infantry and it's a very worthwile set.

January — Happy New Year to One and All

  • Well, we got the wheels back on this thing and the engine tuned up and ready to roll into our sixth year. I thank you all for your support and if you're interested in contributing a review or article, shoot me an email.
  • Academy's M7 Priest has been out a few weeks and you can read what Saul Garcia and Cookie Sewell think of it.
  • Saul sent me a copy of Dodge Trucks in Detail by Koran and Mostek and it's a fine addition to my recommended vehicle references.
  • Steve Malikoff kindly sent some great TM images of the M12 Welding Truck,
  • I've added three new entries to the Kits and Reviews section: Hobby Boss, which has issued two versions of the M5 High Speed Tractor; Real Models, Miloslav Hraben's unique line of resin vehicles; and New World Miniatures, a new figure company from Warriors and VLS veteran Chris Mrosko.
