Just spoke to Airfix about the new club situation.

1. They are NOT sending out renewal forms, so if your membership expires, it's up to you to renew it .

2. The £20 voucher is ONLY usable for Club Limited Edition kits.

The Defiant is finished and will get it's public unveiling tomorrow. That is all.

Sweet.

That is all

Airfix really do look as though they are going to make my modelling year

I like the way the pre-production box art is done in grey, just like the pre-production model in front of it!

Pity about the overdone fabric effect on the control surfaces.

Nothing 20 seconds with some sandpaper won't fix, though?

As a brush painter it will probably disappear under a couple of coats of paint

The artwork for the 1/144 Vickers Vanguard looks great in issue 52, March 2015 Airfix Model World page 107.

The BEA 'Red Square' scheme is the same as the Vanguard's original release, but the Invicta scheme has never been done by Airfix before IIRC. That scheme's been available as a 3rd party decal for some time though, I think I have one somewhere.
