Valiant Wings Announces Airframe & Miniature No. 21
Information supplied by Mark Peacock
Valiant Wings Publishing is pleased to announce that our next title in the Airframe & Miniature series is:
Airframe & Miniature No. 21: The Avro Lancaster (including the Lancastrian) Part 2 – Post-war Service – A Complete Guide to the RAF’s Legendary Heavy Bomber by Richard A. Franks
The Lancaster has been a popular aircraft type with modellers and has recently been the subject of several new toolings in all scales, especially in 1/32nd and 1/48th. Our latest book will go some way towards unpicking the different variants and detail differences that apply to the type and will cover postwar variants, use by foreign air forces, civilian types, both Lancaster and Lancastrian, and trials and test-bed machines.
This twenty-first book in our much-acclaimed series has 272 pages packed with vital information that no active modeller and Lancaster enthusiast should be without.
The Avro Lancaster Part 2 contains:
- 80+ pages of technical information
- 60+ pages of walk-around images and technical diagrams
- 20+ pages of camouflage and markings
- 25+ pages of model builds and modelling information
- 200+ photographs including wartime images
- Colour side views by Richard J. Caruana
- 3D isometric views of all variants by Juraj Jankovic
- Specially commissioned extensive full kit build by John ‘Tigger’ Wilkes
- Specially commissioned front cover artwork by Jerry Boucher
- Set of scale plans
