Another WNW designer is doing Spitfires ...
« on: January 09, 2022, 11:14:47 PM »
Some time ago there was a discussion about a new Spitfire in 1:32 by Kotare in 2022.

Recently I notices another new company called Beacon Models. One notable member of the team is the former WNW designer Bryan Wall.
The first models are again Spitfire and Bf109E, but this time in 1/144. On preorder with some bonus now:
https://beacon-models.com/

That scale is to small for me, but some of our members seems to like it. It is a big step down for a designer from 1/32 to 1/144  ;)

Cheers,
Frank

That's taken a long time to get to order stage, hasn't it? I think we got the news about this company way back when Covid was just starting - shows how long it takes a small company's plans to come to fruition.

The box art for the Bf109E also has "Battle of Britain 80th Anniversary Edition" on it!
