Hello from Brisbane Australia
« on: November 28, 2021, 10:30:23 PM »
Hello,
  I've just joined and would like to say thank you for allowing me to be here.
My interests are all WW1 subjects in 1/48. I've switched from WW2 subjects and am having the best time. I've been doing WW1 subjects for a little over a year now and there will be no going back. :)
  Looking forward to getting involved very soon. Will post pics of my kits so far. Only 14 completed but many more to come. Long way to go I know. LOL.
  Thank you all
Paul.

Welcome Paul.

My favourite subjects are early aviation and WW1 types with a preference to 1/48 scale.

However, I tend to follow my whims and have a go at other scales and other subject matter. Currently building some 1/35 armour types but I know that in due course I will circle back around to early aviation and WW1 types.

cheers, Graham  ( near Ottawa, Canada )

Hi Paul

A very warm welcome to the Forum. It's great to welcome another Queenslander! (The Forum is based on the Gold Coast believe it or not). Looking forward to seeing your builds and I hope you find plenty here to help you enjoy WW1 modelling.

You just joined the best, friendliest, most welcoming and helpful global community of modellers. Thanks for joining!

cheers

Hi Paul, welcome aboard! After building Spitfires, P-40s and the like for most of my life the lure of WWI proved too strong and they can be incredibly fun - if occasionally challenging - projects. I'm excited to see some of your work!

Hello Paul
I made the switch too in the 90's and you are right, there is no going back. This is a great forum with friendly people in it with an enormous pool of knowledge. It will be great to see your stuff.
