Hello from Monheim (Germany)
« on: May 10, 2016, 05:23:28 PM »
Hello,
I want to intodruce myself to you.
My Name is Manfred (like the Baron) and I live in a small Town called Monheim at the River Rhine between Düsseldorf and Cologne. I m married an have a daughter.
I cane in to modelling 3 years ago and started with WWI kits from WNW. Sometimes I also build WWI tanks.
My main Focus is to show the model in Action in a Diorama.
At the EME in Heiden I got my first Award for my Gotha GIV Diorama, wich I will Show you later.
I apologise for my bad English, but I will try my best.

Greetings, Manfred

Hi Manfred,
greetings from Frankonia to the Rhine! Should actually this fantastic "Gotha G IV Letzter Flug" dio come from your workbench? I wasn't in Heiden, but I've seen pictures.
Welcome here, it's a great, motivating and helpful atmosphere and I never regretted joining in.
Viele Grüße
