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.

“Building the British Phantoms Vol. 2” Reaches First Draft!

I’m pleased to announce that our next title, Building the British Phantoms Volume Two, has reached the first draft stage of development. While this makes it sound like a mere halfway point, the book is in fact substantially complete, and now only needs some final revisions and a bit of spit and polish. We’re on track for a release before the end of January.

Not only that, but Volume Two has come in at a smidgen under 600 pages—and we thought Volume One was massive! It’s now our largest-ever publication, edging out Building Race #80 Spitfire Mk XIVe in 1/18 Scale by Peter Castle (565 pages). If you’re familiar with Volume One, then you’ll know what to expect—just more of it!

Stay tuned for an official release announcement!

And don’t forget Volume One if you haven’t purchased it yet:

What Our Readers Say

“Most build articles don’t go into the detail you do. I like your sections on history, the build technique , and the references at the end. The incredibly detailed step by step process is amazing with excellent photographs – crisp, great lighting and non busy backgrounds. Photos of the accessories used in each section are almost like advertising as they are very appropriate, such as the Tamiya glue, Eduard 32893 interior, Gunze paint, HGW seatbelts, Windex and others. You have a bodacious publication – keep up the super work!“
– James Fullingim, USA

“Awesome stuff and highly recommended.“
– Les Applebee, Australia

“Another outstanding release. Great step by step photos and text. Thanks John and Kev!”
– Rockie Yarwood, USA

So race on over to our webstore and grab yourselves a bargain!

And as a bit of a sneak peak into what’s happening next year, John’s latest build has just entered our production queue, and is possibly his best work yet!
