Many people see January as a time to make resolutions for the New Year. I will be starting on a kit I have been staring at for the best part of 6 years. A new year – a new kit. Hopefully it will be finished within 6 years! Why not do the same –resolve to finish some shelf queens, or start that elusive kit that was purchased with stars in your eyes and got put to the back of the pile because it was “too complicated” – or “I will just wait for that extra bit of aftermarket”. Try a new technique – and share your experiences with your club mates – which is what we are all here for. I hope Santa brings you something nice for your stocking! Now go and build something! From the Editor Welcome all to the 4Q16 newsletter. Done and dusted for 2016, wow what a great year for modelling. This month will be dedicated to a wrap-up of our significant annual event, ScaleAct. It must be said that Scale ACT 16 was without a doubt our biggest and best event to date! There are many members that helped make this event work as well as it did. Firstly, there is MR Michael Grieve or as we refer to him MR Scale ACT. Each year Michael oversees a large percentage of what most take for granted and, yes folks Michael does his lion’s share, plus some, to ensure this event runs smoothly. Every club needs at least a couple of passionate members like Michael Grieve to drive it down the right road. Well done mate!!! To all of our members that turned up on Friday afternoon and again at the close of the show on Sunday to help out, a big thank you to all. Without your support the setup and pulldown could not happen. A special mention must also go to our database team Jerry Cashman and Phil Keene, Swap and Sell team, Len Partridge and Tony Allocca and the star of the competition Chief Judge Brad Fallen. I would like to single out of couple of people that put in a huge effort over the weekend. It turns out to be our first husband and wife team and they only joined the society a few months before Scale ACT. Many thanks to Greg and Elaine Jones for their outstanding efforts; you quilters are always welcome back. All in all I had a great time at Scale ACT 16; spent a little bit of money, saw some of the finest models in the country, met some great people and lastly, enjoyed my hobby with like-minded modellers. PS. If you like the photos in this edition of ScaleACTION, you can blame Gary Brook. Well done Gary Great Photography!! Scale ACT 16 Wrap Up Scale ACT 16 proved to be a show that broke many records: * 437 models entered in the competition (previous highest was 372 last year) * 100 separate entrants (previous highest was 96 in 2015) * 48 entries from our Junior and ‘Young Gun’ entrants Very many thanks to all who took the time to help in the lead up to and during the show weekend, your efforts were much appreciated! Aside from a relatively few running improvements that shouldn’t be too difficult to implement, the following are, I feel, the major areas that we need to address for Scale ACT in the future: * Continue building themed displays to increase the number of models on show (eg. a “75th Anniversary of 1942” display is already in planning for Scale ACT 17) * Improve show publicity (we seem to be quite successful at reaching out to modellers, but must do better to attract the general public to the show) * Improve the club build table * Introduce a larger program of workshops and presentations throughout the show weekend (David Hay’s figure painting workshops were very well received this year) All of the above will require the efforts of the membership as a whole - the committee alone will be unable to take on it all. Thanks to all who took the time to respond to our request for feedback, everything raised is being considered.

Flying Corps Service 1914-18 Vergriffen! At the start of the Great War in 1914, the British Army had just 80 trucks and 20 cars in service. These had been augmented by a further 59,490 motor trucks and 33,800 cars and ambulances by the end of the war in 1918. This policy of motorisation made the British Army the most mechanised of all the belligerent nations. This book is the first-ever publication granting a comprehensive overview of military trucks used by the British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Flying Corps in World War One. It covers British-built subsidy, purpose-built and impressed general service trucks with famous manufacturers’ names ranging from AEC to Wolseley. It also shows non-British-built trucks in service with the British Armed Forces, of which the majority were of American origin. Additional chapters cover workshop trucks, tankers, gun trucks, steam wagons, traction engines and tractors. In 200 pages, this book is illustrated with 396 black and white photographs, almost all of which are hitherto Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the unpublished.

Catalogue Collector’s Edition - Includes all Tankograd titles ever published! WWW.TANKOGRAD.COM German Panzers and Allied Armour in Yugoslavia in World War Two German Wehrmacht, Waffen-SS, Polizei and Italian Army, Soviet Army, British Army, Local Fighting Groups When the Yugoslavia theatre of operations in 1941-45 is mentioned, the first description that comes to mind is Bandenkampf (anti-Partisan warfare). And truly, more than any other theatre, fighting in the Balkans was among the most irregular and bloody of the whole of World War Two. This publication aims to close a vital gap in documentation of this campaign by providing the first comprehensive account of armoured vehicles and their respective units deployed there. Combat in Yugoslavia also meant an exceptionally large number of combatants were involved. There was the German Wehrmacht, Waffen-SS, German Police, Italian Army, Soviet Army, British Army and, last but not least, various local ethnic groups fighting on one side or the other. All these were equipped with the most amazing and astonishing assembly of armoured vehicles of any theatre of operations in World War Two. Vehicles ranged from early German Panzers, German Beutepanzers captured in previous campaigns in France and Russia, uniquely outdated Italian tanks and tankettes, to the most modern Soviet and American equipment deployed later in the war. And as if that were not enough, this colourful gathering is furthermore enhanced by improvised armoured vehicles and armoured trains. This book is a truly unique and outstanding compilation of armoured military vehicle rarities, curiosities and oddities! 200 Seiten, fester Einband, durchgehend mit 358 s/w Fotos bebildert 200 pages, hardcover, illustrated with 358 b&w photographs.
