Title: Greetings from Maryland USA
Post by: Rick K on January 02, 2025, 10:11:24 AM
I've returned to my hobby about 10 years ago after a 30+ year hiatus.  Sound familiar?

My genre has been WWII large scale.  Lately I've been branching out to 1:48 and 1:72 scale. 

I have about 6 WWI kits all 1:32 WNW, Roden and Micromir.  With plans to start one this year. 

I'm active on Large Scale Planes forum and sometimes lurk on Large Scale Modeler.

Look forward to some fellowship and tips from you guys.

Happy 2025!
