Hallo from Builth Wells,Wales
« on: October 20, 2013, 01:43:01 AM »
Hallo, everyone,
Names Dave, Im not what you would call a model maker, but due to the bad weather stoping me following my main hobby,(Astrophotography) I decided to jump into WW1 1/32 model making, my first attempt is going to be the WNW, AMC DH.2 so please any advice, help please feel free to post,
I will start a new post on this project, so hopefully, you will give me some pointer, and direction 
Many thanks
Dave

Welcome to the forum, Dave. :) I'm sure you will enjoy yourself here amongst a very
friendly and helpful group of modellers.
 That is quite an intricate model to start with.  I hope you
post a build log as you go.

Best Regards,
Ernie :)

    Welcome to our Forum Dave' I'm sure you'll find all the information and support you need here. Like Ernie, I have to say you've chosen a pretty challenging Kit to start with; good luck with it and I look forward to following your build.
Cheers

Hi Dave, welcome to the squad.

You've picked one of mine favorite subjects, the Airco DH2. Plenty of rigging in a astonishing model.

We're here to help in the way we can. Model on and have fun.

Cheers

I'm pretty much a newbie still (a few builds under the belt) and the DH2 is my next project - so I'll look forward to seeing your progress.  I have to wait for mine to arrive (sent from NZ 12 September....... October 20 still waiting..... hopefully it will arrive soonish - inshalllah as they say in the M.E)
