The check is in the mail, FSM...

Love the magazine but ran out of space since I don't throw them out. I'm looking into getting the digital subscription....Though it would be nice if the e-sub was cheaper than the paper version.

I haven't renewed in a while and I don't think I will (for the moment). I have a Barnes and Noble almost at a walking distance and the issues always arrive 5 to 7 days prior to my mail issues. Several times I ended up with 2 issues because I happened to be working on a certain subject featured in the new issue. Now I buy my FSM if there is something that gets my attention.

In the process of checking out for the latest FSM issue at B&N, I discovered the new Military Illustrated Modeller magazine from the UK and in all fairness, is the heck of a magazine. The stock paper used is top notch not to mention the outstanding photography. The builds and WIP are enticing and inspiring, maybe the reason I'm leaving the wingy thing for armor. I hope I don't get in trouble for mention it. VIVA LA COMPETENCIA! We all benefit from it.

My 9-year old daughter came running into the house last night with the mail, screaming  that Dad got his modeling magazine, then she tried to hide it from me. I quess I get too excited when it come every month.

I am still kicking myself for getting rid of all my issues from the late 1980s and early 1990 when I subscribed for about 7 years.

I am still kicking myself for getting rid of all my issues from the late 1980s and early 1990 when I subscribed for about 7 years.

I recently thinned out my issues from that era but kept the best articles for reference.

Now that I'm looking for armor subjects to scratch build in 1/25th scale I find that the 1980s and early 1990s issues are a gold mine of information about scratch building and have 1/35th scale armor 3 and 4 view drawings in every fourth issue or so.

I don't recall seeing very many scratch building articles in FSM since AD 2000.

I've got all of them since issue 2.  I saw issue 1 at a meeting, but they were hard to find, so I never got it.  I've been subscribing off and on for a long time.  I still subscribe and don't see me not doing so in the future.  Keep it up FSM!

My other half re-upped me when I wasnt looking recently. Maybe she thought I'd get one of those re  enlistment bonuses like I used to... But I must admit I was pleasantly suprised when the new issue came in the mail, and when I read thru it. Best issue I have seen in awhile.

I think I am good till 2014 .That,s is because I look forward to the reviews and the how to,s that are always there .I do get frustrated with mags that don,t tell you how . I will probably wind up leaving my collection of mags to the CRAFT department for use by the vets at AUDIE MURPHY hospital .        tankerbuilder

It's the only thing i read religiously.  Already hanging out of the April issue.
