Another New Book from Valiant Wings!
Information supplied by Mark Peacock
Valiant Wings Publishing’s eighth title in the well-established Airframe & Miniature series will be de Havilland Mosquito - Part 1: Bomber and Photo-reconnaissance by Richard A. Franks.
The modelling map in relation to the Mosquito has changed dramatically in recent years and much more reference material is now available. The time is therefore right to bring out new titles that comprehensively bring modellers and enthusiasts up to date with the type. A second volume covering fighters and fighter-bomber versions is planned for later release.
This eighth book in our much acclaimed series will contain at least 176 pages packed with vital information that no active modeller and Mosquito enthusiast should be without.
It will contain:
- 40+ pages of technical information
- 20+ pages of walk-around images and technical diagrams
- 5+ pages of camouflage and markings
- 25+ pages of model builds and modelling information
- 200+ photographs including wartime images
- Colour side views and four-views by Richard J. Caruana
- 3D isometric views of all bomber and PR variants by Wojciech Sankowski
- Specially commissioned extensive full kit builds by Libor Jekl and Steve A. Evans of the 1/72nd scale Tamiya B Mk IV plus another converted to B Mk XVI, 1/48th scale Airfix PR Mk XVI and 1/32nd scale HK Models B Mk IV Series II kits.
