I’m pleased to report that the 4th title in our Build Guide Series, Building the Fly Arado Ar 234 in 1/32 Scale by Kent Karlsen, has just been updated to v2.1. And to celebrate, for the next 7 days, we’ve reduced the price to a mere 10 Australian dollars!
In this 164-page eBook, Kent Karlsen builds not one, but two examples of the Fly Arado 234 kit in 1/32 scale.
The feature build sees Kent take kit 32008, add a ton of scratch-built detail, and then construct an amazing airfield maintenance diorama, in a scene that might have occurred at ‘Fliegerhorst Grove’ air base, in post-surrender Denmark.
For his second build, Kent converts kit 32003 into the V6 four-engine prototype, complete with figures and a Sd.Kfz.2 Kettenkrad from Zoukei-Mura.

In this 167-page eBook, John Kim takes you through the building, painting, and finishing of the terrific 1/32 scale Ta 152H kit from Zoukei-Mura.

Wanting to build a Ta 152H-0, but not being able to find the correct kit, John decided to take the earlier Ta 152H-1 release and backdate it to H-0 configuration.

Phew, that was quick! Thanks to eagle-eyed customer Ferran Borrell for noticing that we’d misspelled the name of the pilot for Build 1, which occurs in the book no less than 213 times! Such are the advantages of digital publishing, however, that this rather egregious error was quick and easy to fix—and thus we now have v1.1 of Building the Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa in 1/32 Scale.
This update is free for all existing purchasers, so if you’ve already bought and downloaded the book, we strongly encourage you to grab it again by simply re-downloading it—either from your account if you have one, or by using the original download link in your order confirmation email.

I’m pleased to announce that our latest title, Building the Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa in 1/32 Scale by Gary Boxall, is now available!
In this 361-page eBook, award-winning modeller Gary Boxall describes the building, painting, and finishing process of three Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa kits! The first build uses Aviattic lozenge decals to portray Eugen Siempelkamp’s Pfalz D.IIIa, and is a comprehensive guide to building the model. For the second build, Gary opts for a fully-painted finish to portray the markings of Hans-Georg von der Marwitz’s Pfalz D.IIIa. The third and last build sees Gary backdate the Wingnut Wings Pfalz D.IIIa kit to the earlier D.III, finished as Alois Heldmann’s aircraft.
The book also includes tutorials on rigging, and masking & painting over decals, along with our usual Appendices of aftermarket products and reference material.
And as with all our books, should any updates be required, anyone who purchased a prior version gets lifetime free access to all subsequent updated versions! All new purchasers will of course receive the updated version automatically.
