Rest Models are almost ready to release their new 1/48 scale Quad M-4 anti-aircraft gun. The kit is in final stages of preparation prior to release, with a finished model being assembled and and painted for box-top images.
The resin model consists of highly detailed water-cooled Maxim MGs on an AA mount, along with a 3-man crew. According to Rest Models, the kit should be ready for release in a few weeks time. Look out for an early review on Aeroscale.

The Quad M-4 marks Rest Models' first move away from purely aircraft subjects in 1/48 scale and should be an ideal accessory for Eastern Front dioramas and airfield vignettes. Looking further ahead, next in line are a Focke-Wulf Fw 159 and Heinkel He 70 - some way off yet, but with Rest Models' reputation, they should be well worth waiting for.

Oh I have got to get that...a little backdating and Whalah! (or Viola! sez vou preferey!) The MGs can be easily modified to represent infanrty versions of the 1915 Spandau! A little work and the figures could be easily transformed into 1915-16 German anti aircraft crews. We I know what I want for Christmas.

MmmmHmmm, now that's what I'm talking about! Good review, mate, and what a welcome addition! I personally have built most of the current kits on the market of the Quad 4 Max, and this little gem looks to be one of the best cast yet, by far. . . Cheers! ~Gunny
