NEW FROM EDUARD
1:48 Mi-24 Hind
rivet decals
The recent 1:48 kits of
the Mi-24 Hind gunship
helicopter were generally
superb productions, but
with one crucial element
missing; rivets! Eduard have come to the rescue with a
decal set that replicate the hundreds of missing fasteners,
which has the potential to transform the kits.

warmly welcomed by modellers of support
vehicles and classic movie fans alike!

COMING SOON FROM ALPINE MINIATURES
1:35 British Tank Commander Set
This two-figure resin set (also available to purchase

crewmen wearing the 'pixie suit' winter uniform
and are thus suitable to place in the hatches of
any British tank that fought in the winter months
of Europe towards the end of the war. As you can
hopefully see, the detail is stunning and they will
provide the perfect 'icing on the cake for your
Churchill, Centaur or Comet model. Sculpture by
Taesung Harmms, box-art by Dr. Jin Kim.
