New 1:72 Ford AA bus

Here you have a new addition to Minairons' 1:72 collection of Interwar civilian vehicles: a Ford AA bus, that can be used either as an improvised transport of troops or in its original role --just a good old countryside bus. Model itself is mostly DLP 3D-printed and consists of just 3 parts: main body, roof and a hard plastic spare wheel. It requires a little assembly, then.

It was already released at Minairons' website a few days ago, but I'm still struggling with family health issues; so I had no time to publish this installment until right now. Apologies for the delay!

Minairons' ever growing collection of 1:600^th scale Age of Sail ensigns has added three new titles to their list, that you can see in the photo above - this time covering the Republic of Genoa from mid 13^th to late 18^th centuries, as well as the Duchy of Savoy during 18^th century and its heir, the kingdom of Sardinia in Napoleonic times.

They're all already available at Minairons' website, as usual.

1:100 Miller-Ford racer & status update

I'm happy to share Minairons' latest release, the 1935 Miller-Ford racing car in 1:100^th scale. Once again, this new model comes as a 3D-printed product, so requiring no assembly except for the white metal driver to be attached in cockpit.

As for our family health issues, my wife is coping well with her lung chemotherapy treatment; also, she is making visible progress in her motor rehabilitation process (she was affected by a Guillain-Barré syndrome). This is going to take a long time still, but we both are optimistic at regard.

Nevertheless, over four months have passed now since this health issue started, so I'm likely still going to need to shut down Minairons' website from time to time, in order to perform all necessary housekeeping tasks while she is hospitalized. You know, a day is just 24 hours long!

As for the desired Minairons miniatures managament transfer after my retirement, I'm happy to let you know that a preliminary talk took place recently with a friend who had also been in the wargame business for some time, with satisfactory results so far. Hopefully exciting news in this matter to come within this year.
