Hello from Western Washington, USA
« on: April 03, 2019, 08:03:14 AM »
I'm so glad I found you guys. I'm just getting back to modeling since retirement a couple of years ago. It's been several years since I built anything and a lot has changed in the hobby since then. Early aviation is my favorite subject but love all eras of aircraft. I bought a couple of WNW and Eduard WWI kits but have decided to start on something more modern, an F4C Phantom just to get use to the tools and modern tools, paints and techniques. After that I'll probably tackle a WNW Sopwith Camel. In the meantime I'll hang around and learn as much as I'll can from the wonderful projects I see here.

A warm welcome from Germany, Albert. Nice that you have found this forum. I think it is the best WWI forum in this galaxy.
Looking forward your builds,
