Title: Greetings from the UK
Post by: Seahawk on December 04, 2018, 08:57:47 PM

Hi.

I learned about this forum from GrahamB, to whom many thanks: it's clearly where the WWI big boys hang out.  I am coming to WWI modelling late, having already acquired an embarrassing number of kits of WW2 and post-war aircraft.  I was drawn in by the new Airfix 1/72 BE2c, a beautiful little model with many marking and conversion options.  I model almost exclusively in 1/72 scale so am something of an outsider among all you 1/32 Wingnut Wings enthusiasts.  I also seem to spend more time on research than actually building kits, so please don't expect to be deluged by my completed output, even if I should ever deem any of it worthy of appearing alongside the superdetailed masterpieces here.  Anyway, thanks to Dave W for letting me in and I crave your indulgence with my daft questions.

Best wishes, Seahawk

Welcome aboard Seahawk, If you are looking for inspiration, information, or just advice on WWI Aircraft modelling you've come to the right place! Your preference for 1:72 Scale does not make you an outsider, we have numerous outstanding builders here that work in the scale. Work at your own pace and enjoy the Forum! :)
Cheers,
Lance

Welcome to the forum, SH  ;)
Scale is not a factor in our community. Just build what you like and share what you can. Simples!

Enjoy!!  :)
