Hello,
I'm an old git who hasn't modelled in hundreds of years. I did a few back in 2003/4 but before that was in my teens back in the late 70's when music was great and summers were longer! I found this place by chance as most sites I've found are mostly US based (not that I have anything against Americans you understand, no siree!).
At the moment I'm just doing 1/72 aircraft, though I have a few 1/72 tanks and vehicles to do as a pal recently got me into Rapid Fire and Valiant Miniatures.
Don't know many other modellers, as when you try and get model kit making into conversation people look at you as though you're some kind of wierdo!!!
By the way, I do like girls and beer..............only I don't get much of the former!!!

Old Meatloaf also claimed to "...See paradise by the dashboard light"!
Nowadays I need some very good flourescent tubes and a couple of strong side lights just too read the back of the CD case.
Actually... That's not funny... Why am I laughing...

Hi Rob you're in the right place alright, well Aeroscale is the Aircraft site but here is cool. You may also want to look up the "Bulldogs" site , see the drop down list under IPMS-UK Kitmaker, you will meet many british modellers. We are a purly online club but we meet at shows around the country and you are more than welcome to join us. Even if you don't join the club you can meet as at shows
