I missed the big announcement.What was it?.The rumour going around was a 1/24 Defiant.....
 
Thanks for the pics Dave. I particularly like that cutaway Catalina.

PS I heard the rumour is about a 1/24 Meteor.
 
Check out the Airfix Face-book site, a few of the releases for 2015.

New mould 1/72 Defiant, He 111p, Westland Sea King HC4 announced so far.

Busy?Everyone I saw on the stands was just sitting talking!.I found my club stand 'IPMS South East Essex' so I was able to have a sit down and chat myself
 
that is busy dave, bear in mind most of us spend all our free time sat alone at a desk playing with our plastic toys

The Big announcement was..... That the design team have been given a LIDAR scanner that will enable them to scan whole aircraft, tanks, cars and convert them to 100% accurate 3D models that can then be installed into their CAD program and turned into working models for the toolmakers....

The three 1/72 scale kits they had at the show where made using their new toy.

I laughed so hard, every one jumped to the conclusion that the big announcement was a new 1/24 scale kite.....lol

Another rumour I heard was a 1/24 Folland Gnat!!
 
Thanks for sharing, Dave - it's always good to be reminded how much better some other modellers do it! Would have liked to be there myself as it's not too far away, but was playing a gig in Glossop (which, at midnight, is too far away). Too many hobbies...

What puzzles me is that the model railway manufacturers have been doing this type of thing for years and producing some pretty damned good locomotives from the scans.
