W

ith perfect timing for

this issue that features

CMK’s sister company

Special Hobby’s Tempest Mk.V

we have a number of sets for

their Hawker Tempest family

which now covers the Sabre

engined Mark V and VI and the

Centaurus engined Mk.II. Later

on this year we should also see

the ultimate development of

the type the Hawker Sea Fury.

The CMK range of aftermarket

sets is divided into two ranges,

the standard range in yellow can

be multimedia or just resin sets.

This month we are concentrating

on their resin figures sets that

supply two pilot figures one

climbing into the cockpit and one

with the pilot seated. The second

set supplies an RAF mechanic and

is perfect if you are building your

model with the engine exposed.

The second range in Green

packets is the Quick and Easy

range which are simple drop

in replacements for the kit

parts with better detail than

their plastic equivalent.

CONCLUSION

The Green range offer some

simple inexpensive upgrades for

the Tempest and certainly the

Tempest Mk.II/VI Cannon Barrels

with wing and Mark V/VI Exhaust

sets are ones that I would definitely

be adding to my purchase.

If you have any figure painting

skills adding one of these nicely

cast and detailed pilots from the

standard rage will certainly add a

sense of scale to your model as well

as a point of interest to the viewer.

Our thanks to CMK for supplying

the review sample which can be

purchased from many specialist

stores, hobby stores and online

retailers around the world.
