Newbie from Kansas
« on: August 03, 2015, 11:43:06 AM »
Hello all. My name is Gary and live in Columbus,Ks. Like most I built models when I was a youngin then as I got older life got in the way. Been building off and on for the last 12 yrs.... Mainly off :D  Always had a soft spot for the early warbirds but never built one. I have a 1/72 Eduard Eindecker and just ordered a 1:48 Eduard Nieuport Ni-17 profipak. So I came here to learn from the pros on the do's and dont's. I've looked around a lil bit and think I came to the right place.

Welcome aboard, Gary.  Glad you found us and I'm certain you'll enjoy your stay with us.  I know that once you dig into that Eindecker and the Nieuport, you'll be hooked for life.
Cheers,
Bud

The place to be, Gary, for WWI Aircraft Modelling. To paraphrase Nigel, it's all available here!

Hi Gary, welcome on board.  I'm in Kansas as well, in Salina.  Went to school down in that part of the country a long time ago, Coffeyville Community College. 
You'll learn a lot here.  So many great modelers not afraid to share.  It also helps keep up on modeling developments around the world.
