Hi all,
Just thought that I would do a short intro about myself. I've been a member of IPMS Sweden for 7 years now and I prefer 1/48 ac, mostly modern. However it happens that I dabble with armour, figgies and even a car (so far) !!! Historical and technical correctness is of little interest to me. And with the risk of being labeled a heretic, I'm convinced there's more to life than plastic
About my silly username, all I can say, it pretty well summs (sp?) up my opinions on the human race and life in general, i.e. wer'e not that smart after all. Or maybe it's just me
Regards

Hi there EnsignWanker!

Don't know if the British "wanker" means the same as a southern US "wang", but more power to you. Modeling is what it is. A hobby to be enjoyed There are several who manage to forget there are other things in life, but you get that in any goup. Beam me up Scotty
