Hello from Ireland
« on: January 16, 2016, 09:16:54 PM »
Hi.

I'm in Cork City and have been away from modelling for years and years. At the moment I mostly build 1/72 WWI and Golden Age but I'm aiming to ramp up my skills to do justice to more complex larger scales (so I can do justice to some WNW kits!) and also to get to grips with resin models, as many of the aircraft I'm interested in are only available in this medium.
The builds on this forum are inspiring and an education, so please bear with me while I make lots of mistakes and ask stupid questions!

I'll be starting the Revell reissue of the Eduard 1/48 Roland CII very soon.

Cheers

Welcome aboard J,
 You'll find plenty of help, advice, and encouragement here and surprisingly most of us did the same thing - stopped for years and came back, so you're far from alone there!

Welcome back to Modelling and to the Forum J. As Ian has said so many of us, like you, came back once real life provided the time, hope it's enjoyable for you as well. :)
Cheers,

Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm glad to be here and am looking forward to participating. First, though, a likely daft question: checking in the forum rules, it states that this is for WWI aircraft only.. does that prohibit WWI aircraft in post-war markings? I'm working on an SE5a in 1920's SAAF markings at present and will also building a bunch of D VIIs in foreign service markings over the coming months.

Thanks!
