Model Life Magazine is a print-on demand product.
This
saves on printing costs longterm, and it's a more
green way to sell magazines. There's no need to cut
down precious trees and stock pile a bunch of paper
books and magazines, sitting around in a warehouse
waiting to be sold.
When
you order a magazine it's specifically printed for
you (by Amazon) so you get a fresh copy right off
the printer. The Magazines are printed right here
in the U.S.A.
And - Back issues are essentially always available
at any time, since the magazine does not go "out
of print".

Model Life is published by Bruce K. Basically, it's
a one man operation at this point. I build the models,
take the photos, layout the magazine, write the articles,
put it all together, and submit it for print (physically
printing the magazine is about the only thing I don't
do - thank goodness).
I've
often thought of adding outside contributors now and
then, but no one I talk to seems interested. So for
the time being, it's a one pony show.
I've
been a model builder since around 1970. I'll build
a model kit of any subject if it interests me, in
any model scale, and any material - plastic, vinyl,
resin - sometimes even wood.
Cars
and trucks are probably the most common kits I build,
as they're less costly than other types of models,
and are generaly easy to assemble. But I like Scifi
kits a lot too.
While
it's a labor of love to print my own magazine, I hope
you enjoy the issues as much as I do publishing them.
Keep
on building !

Do
you have an idea for a model book, magazine article,
or a publication that's model related?
I'm
always interested in new ideas. Drop
