Hi,

I'm 39 and came back to modeling few months ago because of (or thanks to) my son (11) who discovered this new hobby.

I live in France and I'm a state employee.

Few years ago, I was a musher and I've run sled-dogs races (with 4 alaskan malamutes). So a 1/35 muhing diorama (pick-ups, racers stand-by areas -AKA stake-out-, aso) will be my next project in modeling.

By the moment I try to scratchbuild a post-apocalyptic truck, a Wolf Truck from an old AMT kit :

before :


soon : (I hope so...)

Phil, welcome aboard. Looks like you have some interesting projects lined up. As for your son, there is a group build in the works for modelers under 16. Next Generation II campaign. Any model he wants to try. There will be plenty for both of you to do.

Thanks a lot for welcoming and for the information Russ.

My son does not read English yet but it'll be a good way to motivate him to understand the language !
