Modelling the De Havilland Mosquito by Roy Sutherland
The Mosquito was one of the best twin-engined fighter/fighter-bombers of its size to see action in World War II. With the addition of AI Mk IV radar the RAF's premier nightfighter achieved great success both in the defence of Britain and on roving patrols over occupied Europe. The design's superb performance, and ability to outpace enemy fighters made it the ideal choice for the RAF's photographic reconnaissance force. In small numbers it was taken up by the USAAF to cover campaigns over northwest Europe. These differing roles are all reflected in the variety of kits built and colour schemes shown throughout this title.
Roy Sutherland has worked as a professional modelmaker since the early 1980s, creating aftermarket products for the kit industry as well as the kits themselves. Over the past 18 years he has worked for companies such War Eagle/Hobbycraft, Scale Models Unlimited and Cooper Details. In recent years he has also worked for Industrial Light and Magic, and his recent credits include Planet of the Apes and Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones.
