East Kent Scale Modellers - first club night of 2025

 

..first meet of the year coincides with the date of the Airfix 2025 range launch. Of course, as Luke has gone to Revell - and still no sign at our meets of his replacement - he was not present to give us our usual Airfix' briefing' but generally people were pretty happy with what was announced - obviously the Jaguar was an 'open' secret but the Stalwart was a surprise, but most seem to have already got a Spitfire twin-seater in their collections courtesy of Brigade Models. As usual there were some great models on the table for tonight's meet...
