Greetings

Gold Reef Scale Modellers, a modelling club catering for all types of modellers in and around Johannesburg, meets every last Saturday of every month at the Johannesburg Museum Of Military History upstairs in the Delville Wood room. The museum is situated next to the JHB Zoo in Saxonwold. Meetings are in a friendly relaxed environment and modellers are encouraged to bring models to every meeting as we have a "show and tell" after the formalities have been concluded. The club caters for all levels and skills of modelling as well as all aspects of modelling including figures, aircraft, armour, dioramas etc. Themes are set for each month and modellers are also ncouraged to try and bring a model pertaining to that months theme. There is only one rule and that is once you have attended one meeting, you gotta attend the rest! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you require motre information. Send me a PM if you wish and I will give your more details.

Regards, Arthur

Hi Arthur,

Welcome to the KitMaker Network

I believe we actually have quite a few members of your club here, just wish a few more local lads would get more involved with internet modelling as well

Hi Rudi

thanks for the welcome.! Ja, it is a pity that a lot of SA modellers like to keep to themselves and not get involved. I'm new to this site as I am usually on the Finescale forum but this looks like a helluva better site. I primarily build figures so this site is better suited to me as I have noticed a lot of good threads and topics.

watch this space!

Cheers, Arthur
