Title: Hello from New Hampshire, USA
Post by: rcboaterbill on March 31, 2021, 08:29:42 AM

I’ve been a modeler for decades, but just found this forum via a thread on BritModeler.

I’m a builder of RC scale ships, and also a member of my local IPMS club.  On the plastic side, I build a wide variety of subjects: aircraft, ships, armor, space, etc.   I still dabble in flying models, too- one of my current builds is a stick and tissue Sopwith Triplane.

One subject area I particularly enjoy is 1/72 WW1 aircraft.  Several years ago, I built a large mobile with 40 aircraft, to hang over my desk.   My current project is a collection of “Colorful Fighters”.   I have 8 Dr.1s so far, with on deck. I have two of 12 Nieuports built, and 2 of 9 Albatros D.III and D.Vs built already.

Welcome to the Forum Bill, it's a great resource for a Modeller of your varied interests.  I really enjoyed your Tripe collection and that mobile is amazing.
