So... we've seen the pack-shots and CAD views of Airfix's new 1:48 RAF kits - but Steve Budd has been lucky enough to actually to build the beauties! (I'm not jealous at all - honestly...) He's sent us photos of the full quartet of Airfix's forthcoming new-tool quarterscale kits - a real dream-come-true for RAF and Battle of Britain fans, including a complete diorama - all covered in full detail in the next issue of Airfix Model World.
"Here are Airfix's newly tooled 1/48 Spitfire Mk.I, Hurricane Mk.I (metal wing), Bedford MWD, Albion 3-Point Fueller and Crew Figure test shot builds.

Steve Budd has completed all these items and they will feature in a special supplement, along with a Battle of Britain history, photos and colour profiles in the April cover date issue of Airfix Model World (on sale Thursday 5 February).

Full descriptions of each build are included."


Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.
