The latest issue of Windsock takes me right back to the point at which I really began to take modelling seriously. While the issue is packed with excellent articles, such David Hardie's fine build of the WNW Roland C.II and Lance Krieg's detailed look at the illusive Silbergrau, one stands above the rest in my eyes; the hitherto unpublished revision to the late-, great, Harry Woodman's seminal work - Scale Model Aircraft In Plastic Card. When I bought the original book back in the '70s, it introduced me to techniques techniques that have stood me in good stead ever since, and the new (colour!) edition promises to bring the groundbreaking book up to date with coverage of the many developments in our hobby that have followed since its release.
