Zoukei-mura - latest advertisements

[Thomas_M]

Shortly after St Nicholas`Day we have been send Zoukei-mura´s advertisement for December 2015. This time it´s the ad as it will be seen in SAM Publication modelling mag(s) some time later, but we have it here for you now!

No news in regards to future model kits but a pretty cool build of the Ho 229 in 1/48 scale, done by Master Naoki Kobayashi! He has done a damn good job applying a wood grain scheme on this cute little Horten using Zoukei-mura´s Wood Grain Photo-Etched Masks!

See yourself:

I just saw your reply about the adblocker. I have one running on my Firefox, but even before I was able to see all the pics even with it running. I went again to Photobucket to see this and it is still a grey box; but the "trending on Photobucket" pics were showing up just fine. All of my own pics show up in Photobucket when I go to my albums. I tried to add your pics to the exceptions list but so far it still isn't loading.Maybe it's being whitelisted because it has the word "ad": in the title. Maybe renaming it to remove that might make this unblocked. I've done all I can do. It just seems strange to me that; even with my adblocker running, I always saw all of your ad pics until recently when everything just started to be whitelisted; despite my having done nothing to change things. I just don't get it.

No two computers are the same on this planet, so I am afraid there is no quick solution. I also work on Firefox and have Adblock Plus running. But I also have to de-activate it to see my own pictures on Photobucket since some weeks!

Maybe the fault is on Photobucket, who knows?

Duke, I will send you the picture by email.

Welcome to Zoukei-mura´s first print advertisement in January 2016! And again; it´s Tool Time - again!

This time they surprise us with a completely new tool: a Zoukei-mura Pro-Model C airbrush!

The trigger reminds us to some Iwata-like models. This here has a 0.3mm nozzle, a 15cc paint cup and costs 12.000 JPY (about USD 100) plus fee.
I really wonder what will be next?

This rocks! I could see that one this time. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford one of those. I do like the look of some of those other tools though. Gotta start saving some money.

Zoukei-mura´s February advertisement shows some of the basic (bases!) stuff:


(Click the picture for a larger view!)

Indeed there are some nice bases given. All of them are ready to use! A finished kit looks even better when presented on a base on a model show!

After having promoted their ready-to-use bases this month Zoukei-mura presents their figures!
I guess this plastic kit manufacturer is the only one who offers perfectly designed and fitting figures to each of their aircraft kits in 1/32 scale.

Here we see some of them. More than 50 (!) figures are available, with about 30 (!) for Luftwaffe planes!



We have provided a much larger than usual version of this advertisement for you to see all the detail here (right-click to open in a new window!):

I see they're releasing a 1/32 scale Do-335 this spring. Imagine the detailing in that one.

BS, having the kit already here with me I can tell you that the details given are just magnificent! Wonderful!! Stunning!!!
Only a few more weeks to go until this newest creation from the team at Zoukei-mura will excite modellers all over the globe!

Until then we have the new advertisement on this kit, fresh in from Japan!
