Hi from Cold Lake AB Canada
« on: April 06, 2014, 10:01:36 AM »
Hi I'm James and reside in Cold Lake AB Canada. I've been modeling since I was 5 or 6, so a few decades. I mainly build German WWII aircraft and tanks, Canadian aircraft and tanks, do figures (mostly ancients) and have taken quite a shining to the new WNW kits. I was led here from a site I help on with more info on the new Roland C.II. Cant wait to go through the forum and maybe show what I'm building.

Welcome to the forum, James. Thanks for joining us. Cold Lake is a great
place for modellers, with the RCAF base and all.  It would be great to see
some of your models.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Small world James................... I'm in Cold Lake as well. Not the small town it used to be I'm sure you'll agree. Welcome to the Forum, if the WNW Kits appeal to you there's lots of info and motivation here. I suspect, like you, the majority of our Members have spent a long time in other areas of the Hobby and still dabble there. Welcome to the Forum, and looking forward to seeing some of your work.
Cheers, :)

Thanks all. Starting a Snipe flown by Billy Barker.
Cold Lake isnt what it used to be thats for sure.
Air show should be good I hope. The model club will hopefully have a display. 60th birthday of 4 Wing and 90 birthday of the RCAF. Sic Itur ad Astra

Welcome to the site. Looks like Cold Lake is becoming a model building mecca.
