    DRONE
Bi-monthly magazine published by FTVMC

Covers designed and produced exclusively for Drone by:
John Ludlam

Drone first appeared in 1992 as a double sided A4 newsletter that contained just one kit review: Alien 3 from Halcyon. Ten years down the road and Drone is going from strength to strength.

Now, with an average of fifty pages per issue, Drone is published six times a year and covers all aspects of modelling. Reviews, tips, suggestions and advice on building and painting a wide variety of modelling genres...

Dave's site is still under heavy construction, however he has a selection of pages up that show his range of masks and wall plaques. Its worth checking out just to see the diversity of the work he has done.
