Larger scale (military) models in the MADb.

[Silverbird]

Just a quick note for collectors of larger scale (1:144 and larger) (military) models.
Recently there was quite a bit of activity on https://www.modelaircraftdatabase.com that is relevant for the fans of larger scales. Several brands have been added and some more are still in the pipeline.
Recently added brands are Armour Collection, Aviation72, EasyModel, Forces of Valor and IXO.

Also a dozen aircraft types have been added and many more will hopefully come soon. Among the recent additions are several types from Avro, Heinkel, Focke-Wulf, Vought, Mitsubishi, Saab, Fairey, Mil, Pilatus and others. I have a list of all types of which Hobbymaster made models and the goal is to have all these types in the db soon.

There are also about 100 1/72 scale models plus a few Armour 1/48 scale models, that have been added in the last few weeks, and many already have photos, either from the manufacturer or from users. Maybe also models in other scales have been added, but I can't watch all scales.

I hope this motivates you to update your collection, submit your own photos and add missing models to the db. Esp. the short winter days (at least in the northern hemisphere) seem to be a good time for such activities.

(and before you ask, I'm just a user on MADb)

Be nice to have our collection updated from the old database to reflect what we had in the new one.

6 month later...
We have now 5000 1:72 models from 39 brands in the database (+ 985 1:48 and 363 1:144). Hobbymaster is now almost complete, just some models that will be released later this year are not yet in the db, but that's less than 30 models.

Be nice to have our collection updated from the old database to reflect what we had in the new one.

From my experience I can say that it works fine. I had models in my DiMA collection that at the time of the import have not been in MADb, but once the model was added in MADb it appeared in my collection. Does it work for you?
