Hello from Germany
« on: January 12, 2023, 08:09:32 AM »
Hello everybody,

greetings from North Germany. Being a long time WW I model enthusiast I was very disappointed when they closed down
the model section over at the drome.

Found this place more by accident, always thought this to be a place for 32nd scale, I'm more at home at 72nd.

Already read a number of topics here and decided to join.

Best whishes Joachim

Wilkommen Joachim!

You'll find lots of 1/72 modellers here as well as larger (and smaller!) scales. The research side is applicable to any scale. I'm sure you'll fit right in.
Cheers

Welcome to the Forum! Like the others said there are plenty of builders in all of the major scales. Many of us remember the Old Drome Days  8) This is a friendlier place   :D

Hello Joachim and welcome! Like you I also was part of the 'drome modelling community back in the day. Great to see another 'dromer over here again!

Indeed there are those of us who also love rigged things in 1/72. You'll find plenty of friends here :)

Cheers!
