Picked up the new Airfix Magazine in Smiths yesterday.

In style it reminds me of MAI rather then SAm or SAMI. Quite a nice mix of articles inc. Aircraft, armour, cars, space and diorama plus and article on brush painting. 2 of the builds Phantom and Sea Vixen also have articles. Not just Airfix stuff either.

Not a bad start

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Everything looks better with the addition of British Roundels!

Ditto.  Nice to see a mix of back-to-basics techniques articles, reference, build and review stuff together.
Sea Vixen released at at Telford?  I think so!

I really enjoyed the new magazine, especially the Sea Vixen article. I bought it while shopping in Leeds at Sainsbury's.
looking at the Sea Vixen, I thought it cries out for a much longer nose, more bumps, and a SEAC colour scheme :thumbsup:

I thought it was a nice touch on the plans page to draw the loads in both 1/48th and 1/72nd scales. Still got to read the magazine though it looks like I now have a forth magazine to read each month rather than the three I was trying to get through.

Showing your age Geoff  ;D You realise that that phrase probably now has a completely different meaning ?  :banghead:
