EDITORIAL
My Friends, with this newsletter we will
open a window allowing a glimpse into the
upcoming year that we have just entered.
It’s not so slow entry how it was expected
before Christmas, because all the necessa-
ry inventories were finished in last week
of December, so we open our e-shop as well
as our sales department today starting the
shipping of the parcels already tomorrow.
This situation just confirms the well known
fact that the situation on the battlefield is
ever changing, there may be some variati-
ons to the things you thought you already
knew that may be news to you.
After the limited edition kits prepared for
2018, introduced in December Info, now let
me introduce the other prepared project,
new kits as well as various improvements
in our aftermarket production, expected
for this year. It is a basically straight forward
affair to describe the developments and
concepts that pertain to accessories. At first
glance, they may appear to be insignificant
changes, but they do have the potential
of long lasting implications on production.
For example, January sees the start of our
masks being produced to not only cover the
exterior surfaces of clear parts, but the in-
terior ones as well. These dual surface sets
will be suffixed TFace (‚T‘ for Two) as an easy
identifier. Because we are really not as cer-
tain as internet forums would suggest as to
their potential popularity, we will also be
releasing each set in the classic outside sur-
face only style as well. The TFace masks will
begin their production run only with the
bigger scales, 1/32nd and 1/48th, and will
be limited to types that would suggest the
highest demand. Their price point should
be somewhere around 1.5 times the usual
classic sets.
All of the photoetching will now be prin-
ted on new equipment, the advantages
of which were already made clear last fall,
during Novemberfest and even with some
new items that were released during the
final quarter of last year. The new machi-
nery has better fidelity of detail and picks

out surface detail better, gives a significantly
reduced raster effect and better prints over
relief detail. This is a capability that is also le-
ading us to experiment with this technology
on resin parts, specifically on resin instru-
ment panels. This would be particularly
useful in connection with the lensed over
instrument dials which will quickly be-
come the norm for photoetching in 1/48th
and 1/32nd scales not only for the straight
PE lines, but the Brassin as well. Our inten-
tion with the painted resin is to eventually
create a new line of products around it.
We will discuss this in greater detail when
it comes time to initiate actual production.

make a great present, no? A Tempest Royal
Class boxing can be expected through the
first half of 2019, which will be a great com-
plement to the first Mustang, a P-51D-5.
This, however, is taking me out of the realm
of this newsletter, but before we do sign
off for this month, there are two more ti-
dbits of information I want to divulge. The
first concerns the Fokker D.VII in 1/72nd
scale, which is being finalized and would
like to see the first ProfiPACK kit by the end
of 2018. The second concerns the Bf 109G-
10 and more precisely, its Czechoslovakian
development, the C-10/S-99. We will be re-
leasing a special edition of the C-10/S-99 at
E-day, 2018. I think you’ll like this. Note that
it will not be the admissions kit and will be
a normally sold item, released for the show.
This brings us to the theme of shows.
As is known, E-day this year will be held at
the convention centre in Lysa nad Labem
on Friday, September 28. This is a state ho-
liday, so I apologize to those who cannot
take advantage of this fact and will need to
resort to taking holiday time for the show.
We will not be the only such show at this
venue this year. The Nymburk IPMS club
will be putting on a show there in June.
I recommend attending this show, and it
will give some idea of what to expect form
E-day a few months later. We will, of course
be attending other shows as well, starting
traditionally with Prosek, then at Moson-
magyarovar, in June at the aforementioned
Nymburk show, and in August we’ll be flying
to the IPMS Nationals in Phoenix, Arizona.
Then, it’s off to Plzen, then E-day, and then
Telford and Bratislava to round out the year.
There will be no Brno this year; it is being
replaced by the show at Lysa (the Nymburk
show) and there is also no Novemberfest.
The latter is going the every-other-year rou-
te like Brno.
The New Year will see an increase in the
release of BFC items. There will be stand
alone items such as publications from our
Limited Edition releases (temporarily for
EU countries only; at the end of January for
non-EU countries as well) and WET TRANS-
FER decals. These are made by HGW, who
makes them for our kits and thanks to an
agreement between us and Mr. Bobek (the
HGW owner) will be also offered as BFC
items. There will be other items, and we are
preparing special offers from the kit lines,
which will be sold with expanded decal op-
tions and bonus items exclusively offered to
the BFC crowd. The first such offering will
INFO Eduard - January 2018
be the January release of the Bf 109G-14,
which will include a marking from JG 5 and
a resin wheels. The price will be the same
as a standard line kit release. This idea will
continue past that, and each month we
will choose one standard kit to dress up
in a similar fashion to be offered to the club.
Getting back to the publications, three have
been so far offered: HIND - Mi-24in Czech
and Czechoslovak Service, MF- MiG-21MF
in Czechoslovak and Czech Air Force Servi-
ce, and The Five Hundred – the Avia B.534.
All BFC offers are limited and apply while
supplies last.
We should have a quick look at new re-
leases for January. I decided not to describe
all the new items and their details starting
this month, and only point out the more
interesting of the releases. This would,
without a doubt, include the ProfiPACK
Bf 109G-14 in 1/48th scale, another in the
line of our Bf 109Gs. For those of you that
would consider this version somewhat bo-
ring, take a loser look and pay close atten-
tion to the marking options. You’ll find that
none are boring at all. In fact, you’ll see that
they are very interesting in terms of not
only the striking quality of them, but for
their technical details as well. These are the
things that made these later versions varia-
ble and very interesting indeed. Then, you
can take part in the discussions that will en-
tre around weather or not this or that ma-
chine had a yellow rudder or underside of
the cowling, or a yellow V under the wing,
or whether the fuselage band was yellow,
green, blue, or, God forbid, pink, whether
the tail was wooden or metal, or even if the
plane in question was even a G-14. It will
not be boring. You can also express an opi-
nion about the boxart. This will generate its
own level of non-boring discussions from
those that have decided that they detest
our style of boxart form the very bottom
of their hearts to those that swear by them.
As you will probably guess, we belong to
the latter grouping. We choose these works
of art because we feel that they are consis-
tent with the concept around which our kits
are designed. Incidentally, the G-14 artwork
depicts an actual event. Hartmann’s aircraft
is typically the first choice for this type.
I confess that this aircraft is as interesting
in the offered option as it was later, when
the plane was no longer Hartmann’s.
The photoetched releases for the month
that deserve mention include the sets for
the P-51D-5 from Revell in 1/32nd scale,
among others for the reason that these
have the glazed instrument dials. The same
goes for the Brassin set for the F4U-1D from
Tamiya in the same scale. I would also like to
draw your attention to the Brassin doors for
the Spitfire Mk.VIII and IX in 1/48th for our
Eduard kit. This set is interesting in that it is
being produced by popular demand and it
Bf 109G-14 1/48 ProfiPACK.
includes two doors, one with and one wit-
hout a crowbar. The doors are naturally also
good for the Mk.XVI. The mask sets are led
by the P-51D set for the Revell kit and is the
first of the TFace sets produced. Another in-
teresting item among the mask sets is the
one for the B-17G anti-glare panels for the
1/48 sale Monogram (currently from Revell)
kit, depicting aircraft built at Vega.
And that is all for me now. Thank you all
for your support over the past year, and
we will work hard to continue to deserve it
going forward. Happy modelling!

France, January 1919
British fighter ace Duncan William Grinnell-Milne was born on August 6th, 1896,
in London and at the age of thirteen he joined the ranks of the 5th Battalion Rifle
Brigade (Prince Consort’s Own). After the beginning of the war, he was deemed
too young for service at the Front, and was left on the island. He was subsequently
assigned to the RFC and underwent pilot training. On September 29th, 1915, he
received orders that assigned him to No.16 Squadron, RFC. As a member of this
unit, he took part in the fighting, but on December 1st, 1916 he was shot down
and taken prisoner. He managed to escape in April 1918 and return to the British
side of the Front. After that, he was assigned to No.56 Squadron, equipped with
the SE.5a. On December 17th, 1918, he was assigned CO of this unit. He had the
fuselage of his SE.5a painted red and named it ‘Schweinhund’ as a reference to
his time in German captivity.

Fw 190A-3, W. Nr. 130541, Fw. E. Mayer, 9./JG 5, Herdla, Norway, March 1945
Even as late as 1945, there were several examples of the Fw 190A-2 and A-3 serving with 9./JG 5 Eismeer
along side of Fw 190A-8s and some F-8s. These would take part in the protection of the area and of the Nor-
wegian shoreline.
This Fw 190A-3 was painted RLM 74/75/76 and carried the JG 5 unit marking on the port side of the engine
cowl. The white fuselage band identified aircraft of III. Gruppe JG 5. The white colouring of the front of the
airplane was specific to the 9. Staffel.
