Military Modelling

Military Modelling Magazine was a magazine that was published Monthly and focused on making Military Modelling.  

 

The magazine was first published in January 1971 and lasted until July 2018 when it was finally closed.

 

Would like to thank my Father-in-Law Doug Mason for lending me these early issues for scanning.
