Swedish greetings
« on: September 29, 2019, 06:15:06 AM »
Hello!
After having lurked around the pages of this forum for a while, I decided that active participation would be necessary... Necessary in order to make a small repayment for all the inspiration and all the great tips I was getting. But hopefully also a way for me to improve as a modeller. 

So here I am - Fredrik; from Sweden and a few years shy of 50. I've been building models again since the turn of the millennium and before that when I was younger still. Almost exclusively aeroplanes and with a strong focus on British and German types. Most builds also have propellers and I've only recently expanded my focus from WWII to WWI as well. My entire build experience of multi-wing aeroplanes consists of three half- built Albatroses - soon three finished ones!?

Welcome to the Forum Fredrik, be sure to add some photos of those Albatros's when they are complete, or even as they progress.
Cheers,

Hej Fredrik

Having seen Fredriks chequered Albie and his FW 190's I can assure you will not be disappointed.
He is a master of masks and rarely use decals.


And by this posting I guess I have to introduce myself.  ;)
