I
the art of the diorama
know I have said it before, but
it never ceases to amaze me at
just how intricate the art of
the diorama is becoming.
However, what is even more intriguing is that
despite a whole world of accessories, from a
bolt head to a building being available to the
modeller, the amount of scratchbuilding that
goes on sometimes defies even the most ardent
viewer! Michael Mandau’s ‘Defensive Position’
is a case in point; especially the complex
and detailed ‘barn’, which when finished
you would take for a commercially designed
product. My cap (if I had one), is therefore
continually doffed those aficionados of the
art, and I always look forward to publishing
such works. Similarly Peter De Haan produces
some wonderful scenes and his Atlantic Wall
setting in this issue is another
highlight.
You will have also
noticed on the cover that
this issue contains some
‘how-to’ guides. This is
one of the things that came
to the fore in our recent
readership survey, and
we are happy to oblige!
Elsewhere we have our
usual mix of model builds,
references and news from
around the AFV and figure
world, and I am pleased to
welcome Vitor Costa to
the SMMI team with
his Matilda, and look
forward to bringing you
more of his work. This
also ties in well with
our resident historian
We Recommend
Anthony Tucker-Jones as
he explains how the British
Matilda proved to be the best of
the bunch in 1940, and triumphed over the
Italians in Libya. So as always there is plenty
to enjoy!
Happy Modelling!
