New Car Model Magazine!

Hello Automotive Forums,

I already know a few of you from a few PM's I sent out, my own community, and other communities around the net, but this is the first time I have posted on here, so excuse the blatant link pimping...however this may well be of interest to some of you.

We have just released the first issue of Racecraft Magazine - a FREE, online mag, all about automotive modelling, and of course we would like you to check it out!

http://www.racecraftmag.co.uk/?p=384

There is a sizable article on the AFMOTY awards in the first issue of the mag (all done with permission I might add), singing the comps praises, and a heap of other content to read about, so please go and have a look and let me know what you think of the mag.

The idea is to always keep it looking awesome and FREE for online readers, so your feedback would be very much appriciated.

Again apologies for the blatant link pimpage. I hope you like it.

Rich

A good start, but you should try and cover some of the French, Italian and Spanish/Portuguese top builders also. Maybe see if Minidelta will let you do a writeup on Patrice de Conto. As always we can supply photos from the small model and Ferrari/sportscar show in America called Ferrari Expo. It also brings in some top builders from the USA and Mexico/Canada. Maybe soon also from Japan!

Thank you Tommy, feed back is much appriciated!

We are always on the look out for talented builders, so I'll keep an eye out for those you mention.

and even though this is our first issue, we are certainly for submissions, so if you are interested in sending some material in or suggesting an idea for an article, please get in touch!

Show reports or details are most certainly welcome just give us a shout to find out what we need to be able to add it to the mag.

Once again, thankyou for the interest and the compliments!

Re: New Car Model Magazine!

Monkfish, super congrats for this amazing achievement! I liked very much the all thing. Design, content, structure... very well done!

As Crisjr said (thanks, btw), a thread was started in our Brazilian Forum as well. I Hope we can help you with a lot of content. Fell free to ask anytime. Please, take a look at www.small-dreams.com/forum. You wont be disapointed! (it is in portuguese, but you can post in english with no worry)

Best part is its free...also nice to see someone just doing it for

Very nice magazine. It is much better than I anticipated. I like the layout and write-up. Browsing is also a pleasure. I only wish the pictures are in higher resoultion to better see those superb detailing in close up.
