Airfix Starter Sets are ideal for beginners.  Each Small Starter Set includes glue, brush and four acrylic paints – all that is needed to complete a fabulous first kit!

Where possible, Airfix have been using Lidar to ‘map’ new subjects since 2015, this gives much improved accuracy to their measurements, textures and the general feel of the subject.  The Lidar data is then fed into a CAD program for Airfix to begin creating the model.  The video shows how it’s all done. 

This Airfix Plastic Model Kit requires paints and glues to complete, we recommend the following:

• Tamiya Acrylic Paint
• Humbrol Enamel Paint
• Glue
