The Fusilier 1:32 German Aviator 1918 - The Fusilier

Thanks Geo. She might thought for a split of a second... then all gone.... -
German Aviator 1918 THE FUSILIER Fus 54-19 1:32nd scale Price Tag: 15£ (Steve Warrilow picture) Steve Warrilow has been a busy bee in expanding his catalogue. Not only to the figure modeler, as such, but also to 1:32 scale, in order to give some figures to our WnW. I got a small box in the mail box and I was quite excited with it because I knew that was this particular figure that is made to fit WnW Albatros. A small plastic box, with three resin pieces, and one small sheet with painting instructions. The resin parts are the torso (all body and head) left arm and the ladder. Starting off with the non figure part, the ladder. This ladder is a basic ladder, not a four legs ladder, so this one would have to be leaning to the plane. My samples have a little warp in the first two steps but nothing serious. A little clean have to be made to remove flash and a little resin block. Now to the main character: The left arm is easly fit into the figure, so no major cleaning or dryfitting or putty is need. Checking close the figure, no seam mold or flash is present… Such a fantastic cast that give the modeler an almost primer ready figure. It`s also a figure with some great details in clothing, such as scarf, gloves, boots ... the details that makes the high quality picture. Meanwhile what makes this figure special is his posture and his facial expression. The body compassion with the pilot just getting in to the plane, almost forced to complemented with the heavy facial look, like a guy that its just walking to his fate, whatever it was… The night level of concentration and body tension is full present in the figure. Note that something that is only at reach of few… and Steve Warrilow is one of them. Here`s the pictures to you to know what I talking about (these pics do not make a real justice to the figure) The painting instructions is only a list with appoints to use in the several pieces of wear, like the helmet, gloves, scraft, etc. Conclusion. The figure is simply one of the best I ever seen in one 1:32. All the war drama is in it! While WnW doesn’t release their loooong announce figures, Steve Warrilow, is filling the gap with fantastic figures in 1: 32nd, perfectly symbiotic with WnW model kits, in this particular case with Albatros but I think That Is Also suitable to the Fokker D. VII. The only low part of this figure is actually not the figure but the ladder. Really a simple one, with some cleaning to do and a little warp. Nothing that average modeler can deal with. Highly recommend My thanks to Steve Warrilow, the men behind “The Fusilier” for the review samples and all the support given. Just visit The Fusilier website (here) – and if you do don`t forget to mention LSM and WNW Fans). Fran

PLUSMODEL Cables reels (small and large) (Catalogue n.º 455 and 456) Price Tag: 13.60 €/19.40$ Available from Plusmodel Plusmodel is a quite busy company in releasing diorama accessories giving modellers huge options to their work in dioramas! We are spoiled by Plusmodel and very happy with that. Cable reels are present every here… in a construction site or in a farm… or in just abandoned…. And they are almost intemporal so you can use then in WWII scenario or modern one. Here we a going to take a close and quick look to new accessories to enhance your diorama to an all new level. The cable reels come in the standard Plusmodel box, been curious that the Big cable reels are in a smaller box than the small cable reels…. Both sets are in 1:35 scale and both are a small multi-media kit. The large and the small set are different diameter, being that the only difference. You get laser cut/etched wood for the side plates and the cylinder, hard paper card for the metal plates and resin for the bolts. I never worked with these laser cut wood but it really looks fantastic because his real wood at scale. There`s no decals sheets so all the numbers that are in the box arts are aftermarkets or painted. The instructions are quite simple as both sets are. I do have some reservation in how to make the central cylinder as is in the instructions, because it really look like a difficult task, doable, but hard to get it right. Maybe I wrong on this but I will try it soon, just to check it. CONCLUSION: These little and simple Cable reels are a perfect adding in any diorama bringing a special detail on it with a most high quality. Highly recommended. With my sincere thanks to Plusmodel for this review sample. To purchase directly, click this link. Fran Guedes

Hi Guys. Again the free shipping. I read somewhere that the increase of the price tag on the last two release could be a signal to keep the free shipping... Unfortunately, no.... Also the free shipping will not end in one day to another without previous warning.... Here`s Richard statement about it when I asked him.... "Free shipping will need to end shortly but not necessarily at the end of this year, it will probably be sometime before the middle of 2016. We will give people some advance warning before this happens." Fran
