Kia Ora from New Zealand
« on: May 09, 2021, 06:20:13 AM »
Hello All,
My name is Brian Allison, from New Zealand. I have returned to aircraft modelling after a long hiatus and concentrate on WW1 after discovering the wonderful WNW kits at a local airshow (My first build, an S.E.5a is pictured on the WNW gallery). Luckily I have a 'few' more of their kits in my stash.
Roden and Special Hobby also feature in my collection. I've come to realise that all kits make beautiful models (as perceived by the builder) and can't stomach those who criticise others' builds. Do your best and enjoy a wonderful and harmless hobby!

Best wishes to all in these trying times..........

Welcome back to model Building Brian, and to the best Forum on the Web. Those Wingnut Wings Kits are hard to beat alright but you are so correct on the others as well. Enjoy the comradeship here and the seemingly endless help and information!
Cheers,
Lance

Welcome back Brian

Its always great to see modellers return to the hobby after a hiatus.

We look forward to seeing your models and hope you get lots of enjoyment from the Forum.

It's also great to see more Kiwis on the Forum too ( don't tell anyone but I'm from Dunedin)
