Good evening Ian, and welcome on board. If I'm not wrong we met on the FSM or MM forum about my "DUKW quest" . I think you will soon notice the difference between this and the other forums in terms of quality and quantity of the posts.
Enjoy you staying!!!
Ciao

Hi,

Ian, I love to read your articles and to see the photos of your models at the magazines and on several sites.

I hope you can give us some of your tips to help us to increase our skills.
