Afternoon everyone
« on: September 30, 2021, 01:35:51 AM »
Just a quick hello to one and all  :)

Been modelling all my life and mainly modelling figures and busts for the last few years, but fancied something a bit different so bought myself a couple of Eduard 1/72 kits to see if I can still manage to build something with wings (The last kit I built was about 50 years ago) Always a fan of early aircraft and when I saw a friends 1/72 WW1 aircraft appearing at a club meeting I was very taken with them so here I am

Look forward to meeting folks

Cheers
Paul

Thank you both, looking forward to reading and learning (as well as posting the odd build maybe) ;)

Made a start over the weekend on one of the Nieuports - Lorks it's tiny! Still I'm gradually remembering how to do things. Trying to use what stuff I've got to hand rather than go out and buy the latest gizmo whatsit until I've got a couple under my belt. Picked 72nd because I've not really got the space for larger stuff and would really rather brush paint models (Got a couple of airbrushes, but I work as a sign writer so more used to having a hairy stick in my hand) Anyway I'll post a pic or two once it's come together and I can sort out a way to post pics.

Cheers Lance. I think I figured out the way to create a link from Google photo's which appears to work so I'll try that initially and see how it goes
