    • Reviewer’s Comments Another in ICM’s range of paint sets, this time for use with any WWII British armoured vehicles. The set contains the following 12ml paint pots from their range of generic colours; I have listed what I believe to be their intended uses: 1041 Buff – Light Stone/Portland Stone 1027 Gun Metal Metallic – tracks 1054 Chocolate – possibly SCC.2 Brown, but this paint is too dark 1059 Green Ochre – Middle Stone/Dark Stone 1069 Extra Dark Green – Deep Bronze Green 1071 Camouflage Green – SCC. 15 Olive Drab or Khaki Green No.3 The back of the box has a couple of drawings showing suggested uses for each color. The Camo pattern on the Churchill is like nothing I have seen before on a British tank, though it’s quite possible it was a special scheme in Italy. View the full review
    • AOA Decals has a good reputation for quality decals, and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to review another one of their newest releases, JLTV (1) - M1279 US Marines (35-013). The decals come in two sheets, one of stencils and the other of markings for nine options. View the full review
    • War Dog Modeling offers a line of stands for holding various types of models (aircraft, ships, etc.) for painting and detailing. I was given the opportunity to try out the model car stand. The stand itself appears to be 3D printed. All the parts are solid and strong, and it feels well-made. Mine came in an unmarked box, unassembled, with no instructions or photos. It was relatively easy to figure out how it all went together from the photos on their web site, but a photo or a simple exploded drawing in the box would have been appreciated. All the parts went together very easily, and no tools were required. View the full review
    • Recent advances in 3D design and printing have made it much easier for new kit manufacturers to enter the market with subjects usually avoided by traditional manufacturers. A good example of this is MDesign of Bulgaria. MDesign produces 3D-printed kits of unusual WWI subjects in a variety of scales. In this review I will be examining their new 1/32nd scale kit of the LFG Roland D.II. The Roland D.II was an attempt to develop a fighter from the successful Roland C.II two-seater reconnaissance aircraft. The D.II was not a success, it couldn’t match the performance of contemporary Albatros fighters and was more difficult to fly. The Roland D.II had a very short service life with Germany on the Western Front. The Roland D.II had a much longer career in Bulgarian service. View the full review
