Military Modelling Magazine

Reviewed By Glen Broman, #32541

Welcome to the Spanish school of modeling.  For those of you who read Military Modelling magazine, you may be familiar with the work of some of the great Spanish and European modelers featured in their pages.  This new magazine features the outstanding modeling talents of some of the great Spanish modelers Miguel Jimenez, Jose Azorin as well as other world class modelers.

Published in Spain, this new magazine is very high quality and is highly recommended for the serious armor modeler.  The magazine is published quarterly, with a special Christmas issue.  I received Issue 1 (Spring 03) and Issue 3 (Autumn 03) to review and I have to say that I am very impressed with this magazine.  The magazine is printed on high quality heavy stock and the photo reproduction and artwork are first rate.  The magazine has 64 pages, all full color, and all of the text is in English.

Featured in these two issues are some truly excellent models, such as the diorama of the Sdkfz 138 Grille that was pulled out of the Enns River in Austria several years ago.  What is very much appreciated is the “how to” nature of the articles; paint ratios, groundwork techniques, in progress build photos are all featured in the magazine.

The Editor has an introductory offer for non-European IPMS clubs and members.  You can subscribe at the European rate of 73 Euros (about $1.18 at the time I’m writing this) instead of the normal overseas rate o 83 Euros.  If you are interested you can contact them at modeler@xtrememodelling.com or check their website at:

Extreme Modelling is highly recommended to modelers who want to improve their end result and the models featured in the magazine will definitely help you get there.  Thanks to Jose Azorin of Extreme Modelling for the review samples.
