AK Interactive: Aces High 12 Hydros - English
Aces High 12: Hydro is the issue of AK Interactive's aircraft modeling magazine dedicated to the seaplanes of the First and Second World Wars, in English.
Aces High is led by modeler Daniel Zamarbide and pairs build techniques and step by step guides with historical background. This issue turns to aircraft that operated from water, and as chief editor Zamarbide puts it, it also concentrates on painting and weathering techniques for water effects, since a seaplane only looks right on a convincing sea.
The builds cover a spread of scales and kits: a 1/32 Kittyhawk Vought OS2U Kingfisher in early pre war yellow and blue by Zamarbide, a 1/32 Wingnut Wings Hansa Brandenburg W.12 by Jeroen Veen, a 1/72 Academy PBY Catalina by Vitor Costa, and a 1/48 Airfix Supermarine Walrus by Juan Villegas. A 14 page water effects article by Bera Caroly closes the issue, covering depth, still and open water and waves with resin, plaster and cotton.
