We are extremely fortunate to have this talented group of professionals working with us, particularly as their unique design skillset really does make them stand out in their field, with very few people outside of the Airfix office able to boast their particular abilities and design achievements. You might well think that the Airfix product designers have a difficult enough job in simply taking some of the world’s most iconic aircraft, vehicles, ships and various other machines, turning them into accurate scale representations of the real thing, using the very latest design and manufacturing processes, however, sometimes they are often required to go one step further - to actually think about the future of the hobby and how they (and Airfix) can play their part in this. This stunning box artwork has been produced in support of the first release from our new Starter Set range, kits produced specifically with the first time modeller in mind. A new design challenge for the Airfix team Occupying such an important position for the Airfix brand as we move forward, we therefore make no excuse for making this latest edition of our blog something of a new Starter Set spectacular, with a rather attractive super car as our modelling muse. With our new 1/43rd scale Bugatti Chiron kit becoming available this week, we will be bringing readers a preview of what they can expect from this new generation of Airfix model kits and we feel certain that we have a couple of interesting and unusual developments to share with you in the process. Incorporating our usual selection of exclusive product development imagery, we have been fortunate enough to spend some time with our Design Manager, in order to gain his thoughts and professional insight into a new product range which marks an exciting new direction for the Airfix brand, one which is intended to appeal to a specific modelling audience, but one which can equally be enjoyed by anyone, no matter what their age or modelling experience. ![]() We have something a little special for Workbench readers this week, as we prepare to welcome the first of our newly tooled 1/43rd scale Starter Set model car kits to the current Airfix range. Welcome to this latest edition of our Workbench blog and all the news, updates and modelling exclusives from the fascinating world of Airfix.
