A froggy here!
« on: November 05, 2013, 03:35:48 AM »
Hi, I'm a french modeler, retired, and may be I found here the proper Forum for my new challenge... I'm not an aircraft specialist, vintage cars are my real favorite in 1/8 scale, but this time here we go with the famous RAF Se5a... (Hasegawa basis)
Please be indulgent with my english!

Hi and welcome to a brilliant and very friendly forum.

I'm British but have lived near Limoges for almost ten years. Your English seems fine and probably a lot better than my French - which I'm trying so hard to improve. 

Best wishes
Nigel

Hello Propeller and welcome to the forum, so nice to see you here. No need to apologise for your English, it is fine. If you have any questions at all regarding your model building please ask, we have a great bunch of people here who are all willing to share their knowledge with other members.

I'm looking forward to seeing your SE.5a take shape, please post photos of your build progress.
