Hi Dave,
Glad you enjoyed both Special issues. Paul Freshney puts a lot of effort into giving the regular issues of the magazine a wide appeal to the model boating community and his annual Winter Special issue provides an opportunity to tackle some subjects in depth as on this occasion with the use of common model making materials which I found very useful myself.
The annual Specials that I have been editing enable a more tightly themed approach which means that we can include material which it might be difficult to find space for in the more broadly based regular issues. It looks like we will be seeing another of these next summer and I am hoping to put the spotlight on particular aspects of scale modelling in terms of subjects and modelling resources available to support them backed up by associated feature articles by acknowledged expert model makers, some of whom are regular contributors to this forum – but I mustn't give too much away just yet!
Colin
