Hello everyone - welcome to the October issue of MIS. As mentioned last month, it really is amazing to see how quickly 2010 is passing by; it must be my age, but the years just seem to flash by with the blink of an eye. I'll be buying Christmas presents next! Anyway, time based musings aside, what do we have for you this month? If there's a theme to this issue it is one of size; we have five build features this month and all of them feature large, impressive vehicles, packed full of detail. Murat Ozgul gets us started this time around with his rendition of the awesome Tamiya JSU-152. A beautiful kit to begin with, Murat's 'step-by-step' feature will show you how to get the best from the contents of the kit using an arsenal of cutting-edge finishing techniques and materials. I then get a go in the hot seat as I finally complete a 1/35 tracked vehicle, my first in well over twelve months! Dragon's Nashorn is another fine kit and one that offers plenty of scope when it comes to the painting and weathering of the parts supplied. Though not the easiest kit to build (the instructions are more of a hindrance than a help!), perseverance will reward you with a very fine model of this vehicle and one that will easily form the centrepiece of any collection.
