 Many thank to Alexander Egorov for this advance review copy.

Published in the now regular format of A4 portrait and on very good quality paper they have an average of 50 pages per copy.

This is a combined review because they contain parts One and Two to several of the articles.

M Hobby No3 has the following articles in this edition.

Comments on the model show:

If these modellers were lucky enough to be able to travel to our model shows they could hold their heads very high, for the standard is extremely high and in some cases museum quality work is on display. It is refreshing to see the efforts of the modellers from other countries. Congratulations to all those who's work is portrayed in the magazines.

About the rest of the magazine it seems to set new higher goals with each edition. The quality and detail close up photography are a modeller's dream. The plans are stunning and I cannot fault them. The art work just keeps on getting better and better with each edition. The plans on the early T34 are just outstanding. No all the arguments about the correct kits can be solved as plans include measurements and the angles. I would like a follow up on the Refueller with plans for the bowser trailer and accessories ie-Russian petrol and oilcans and in particular the connectors to the end of the refuelling pipes. Little details I know but missing in our hemisphere. The 2S1 set of plans and photographs are a modeller's dream.

So over all two more good quality reference magazines for the library and they will give hours of serious research now and in the future.

Go out and buy them now, as they are a limited print run.

Many thanks to Alexander for advance review copy.
