Today's model aircraft kits are more advanced than ever, including levels of detail unimaginable a few years ago. Yet there is still much that cannot be reproduced 'out of the box' and enthusiastic modelers are attracted by advanced techniques and materials to increase the realism of their models further still.

John McIllmurray served in the army for several years before being invalided out. He is now a Minister of religion and spends much of his spare time modeling. He also operates his own business, making conversion sets for aircraft modelers.
