Plastik Magazine

Hi,

I would like to anounce that a new, free, scale model digital magazine, called Plastik has been published by me.

The link is http://plastik.no.sapo.pt/index_eng.html

There are a portuguese and a english version of it. File size is 8.5Mb and is in PDF format.

I'm already working in the next number, that will be released in 2 or 3 months.

Just read the website to know more about it and download the file.

Welcome to AF! Thanks for the cool link:)

I'm the "designer" and "publisher" of that magazine.

I've released it on Monday, but only yesterday I've finished the translation to english, there may be some errors, but the time isn't much...

Hope you enjoy.

welcome to AF!

That is outstanding! Please keep the new issues coming. I had a great time reading your tamiya vs revell f50 side by side comparrison. Very informative on many different subjects. I will support any way possible.

thx for sharing,I'll keep looking for next issue

Keep up the good work.
Great, what we have been waiting for.

Yeah, it is certainly a very good start, might be an idea to get an English proof reader for the next issue ;).

Dan.

I've just finished reading the "Premier Issue" and I must say: Excellent! Great job on the design and the pics, now I'm drooling for next issue.....

Thanks for all the coments.

I'm already working in the next number, I hope to release it some where in January.

If anyone want to colaborate for the next edition, just send me an email, every help is important.

Hello!

The first issue of Plastik is very well designed and informative. I especially liked the "Versus" section where we could easily see the differences between both kits.

Something I found weird, though, was that the review of the Williams BMW was only one page long. Also, the historic article about the Flak cannon seemed a bit out of place in there. We didn't see any model of the Flak and I wonder if it was in relation to the German bunker article.

:2cents:

In the end, Plastik seems really promising and I'll read the next issue with pleasure! :biggrin:

Thats strange, nothing changed.

I've just downloaded the magazine and opened as normal.

You have to be using Acrobat Reader 5 at least, the best is 7.

Also, make sure you right- click and "save link as". Don't left- click.


Great job on the first issue! Looks great and has some nice info and photos. Keep it up!

What version of Acrobat do you need to read the PDF file? Seems the old version I have can't decode the file. Thanks.

The version used to create the file was 7, but you shouldn't have problems with 6. Lower then that I think it won't do.

Thank you for the quick response. I will definitely need to upgrade then, I'm using 4 at the moment. :lol: Sounds like it will be worth it. :)

3rd Edition is out, but only in Portuguese for the moment, the English version will be released as soon as possible.
