*NOW TAKING PRE-ORDERS!* Dear Luftwaffe fans, The time has finally come to pull the trigger on our new project, 'Axis Wings'! Chandos Publications, in association with Robert Forsyth at Chevron Publishing, will soon realise a long-held ambition to release the first in what we hope will be a long-running compendium relating to the Luftwaffe and co-belligerent air forces. Drawing on the talents of many well known names in the Luftwaffe research and writing community, each issue will be packed with stories, photographs and artwork. There are many fascinating pieces of information on the Axis air forces that are still unpublished, that are too short for a regular book, but are also too important to sit on a hard drive ad finitum. ‘Axis Wings’ aims to make these stories known, accompanied by specially commissioned artwork, and photographs from private collections. Each issue will be approximately 200 pages long, in a softcover format, and is aimed at historians and model makers. Initially we plan to release two issues per annum.The success of this project very much depends on how well the concept is received, but as long as there is a demand we will keep working. We hope that ‘Axis Wings’ will grow organically, and become self-perpetuating, and to that end we welcome the submission of stories, photographs and comments for future editions. The PDF files are with the printers, and we hope to take delivery of issue 1 by the end of February 2024. Issue 2 will hopefully follow a few months later. The book is ready to pre-order, so please head on over to the shop section of the website (link below) to secure your copy. As usual we will be working with our distribution partners around the World, so if you want to wait until they stock the item then please feel free. We will also be listing the item on our eBay (UK) page, and there you can order the item and pay any relevant taxes at source. All in all, we have tried to cover all bases when it comes to obtaining your copy of this exciting new book! https://www.chandospublications.co.uk/product/axis-wings-the-luftwaffe-and-co-belligerent-air-forces-compendium/

I've just recently gotten back into creating aircraft profiles, more for fun and to get work off my mind. I know this site hosts quite a few really talented artists and historians and I would be really grateful if you all wouldn't mind giving a critique. It would really help me to keep getting better. http://bad-rabbit-design.deviantart.com/gallery/ My thanks in advance to all.
