v1.6 of “Building the Zoukei-Mura Ta 152H” Now Available and On Sale!

I’m pleased to announce that not only have we updated Building the Zoukei-Mura Ta 152H in 1/32 Scale to v1.6, but for the rest of this week, we’ve also reduced the price to just 12 Australian dollars!

This a very minor update that fixes a single typo, and updates a product link in the Appendices, so is not considered crucial.

Existing purchasers are able to access the updated version for free. Simply log in to your account (or use your original download link) and re-download the book from the Downloads section of your profile. If you don’t have an account or the original download link, please contact me and we’ll sort it out. And of course, new purchasers will always receive the latest version.

See you all for the next one!

Oops!

In my enthusiasm to get the v1.2 update of Building the Revell Me 262B-1/U1 Nachtjäger in 1/32 Scale out to the world, I managed to introduce some weird copy/paste errors on a few of pages. How embarrassment! I’ve fixed these now, and re-uploaded the corrected version of the book. Please note that I have not changed the version number in this instance, so it remains at v1.2. If you have downloaded the update since it was released a few hours ago, please do so again, with my humble apologies for the hassle!

If you need to confirm the version number of your newly downloaded update, just check the bottom of the Copyright page (iii), shown in the example below (from our Ta 152 book):

This is valid for all of our titles, should you ever need to verify which version of any particular book you might have.

Stay tuned for more news and updates soon!

“Building the Zoukei-Mura Ta 152H in 1/32 Scale” is Now on Sale!

Tomorrow is the first anniversary of the 7th title in our Build Guide Series, Building the Zoukei-Mura Ta 152H in 1/32 Scale by John Kim. To celebrate, for the next 5 days, we’ve reduced the price by 30% to just 10 Australian dollars!

In this 166-page eBook, John Kim takes you through the building, painting, and finishing of the terrific 1/32 scale Ta 152H kit from Zoukei-Mura.

Zoukei-Mura released two variants of the kit: an initial Ta 152H-1 kit, and a follow-up Ta 152H-0 release with refined tooling. Wanting to build a Ta 152H-0, but not being able to find the correct kit, John decided to take the earlier Ta 152H-1 release and backdate it to H-0 configuration. John takes us through not only the simple panel line modifications required for the backdating process, but also his building, painting, and weathering processes to produce the terrific model you see in the book.

The book also includes contributions from Jerry Crandall, Claes Sundin, and Richard Caruana, along with the usual appendices covering aftermarket products, decals and masks, and reference titles.

And as with all our books, should any updates be required, anyone who purchased the a prior version gets lifetime free access to all subsequent updated versions! All new purchasers will of course receive the updated version automatically.

So, jump on over to our webstore and grab yourself a bargain!

Claes Sundin Added to Partners Page!

I was lucky enough to be able to enlist Claes’ talents for Build Guide Series No. 7, Building the Zoukei-Mura Ta 152H in 1/32 Scale, by John Kim. I’ve now added Claes to our Partners page, under the banner of his company Centura Publishing, and look forward to working with him again on future publications!
