This is the first of a series of books dedicated to a particular Ma.K vehicle in this case Falke. The book published by Model Graphix has 64 pages, all pictures are in color, and all text is in Japanese with a small number of notes in English. In the book we find a short story in drawing with Falk in the lead role, and then there is a story of its creation. The first chapter describes Falk made by Kow Yokoyama in 2009, this kit is in winter painting with figures and trailer. Then there is a description of all Falk kits including Hasegawa’s one. Next model shown in this publication is in green paint shame from 1983 also made by Kow Yokoyama. After that there is description of which parts and from what sets was Falke created. Another interesting feature is the color plates for different Falke paint versions, accompanied by decals in the back of the book. Then we come to Flashback of the article about Falke from 1983 which appeared in Hobby Japan magazine. Probably most interesting sections of publications is how to build Falke where we can find in details how to make a Falke kit and what to look for during assembly process. The next section discusses kits of P-38 Lightening along with information on how the idea of Falk was born. Next chapter shows how to assemble and painting figures from the set, after which we find photos of a model dressed as a Falke pilot. Based on these images figure was released by Brick Works, which I reviewed HERE. The last sections the book presents a collection of cars Kow Yokoyama's cars in scale 1 / 43, and his Ma.K art work.
The book is highly recommended to all fans Ma.K especially those who want to do a Falke kit and are looking for additional information about it.
The book can be purchased for example HERE
Any comments or suggestion on the review are more then welcome.
