Envar hasn't be active in quite some tim
Keith has been active but not doing DD's. He has done some other features though.

There are other authors who have done some nice quick SBS type features, just not in a series like these two.

If there is anyone else out there who would like to do a series like this we could certainly add them as well. And perhaps someday Toni or Keith will restart theirs up again.

Cheers,
Jim

Sometimes it takes a while before old members walk by again to contribute, but eventually they ALL find their way back to big A. I'm about halfway in the refurbishing of our home, and the "modeling room" is the last room to be installed. But I'll make it a modeler's paradise workroom And then... I'll be back !
Happy Easter to all.

Jan

PS : Jim no matter how often I stay away for more than a few months : you always seem to find new and intriguing ways to make this site (these siteS now!) more interesting.

Thanks Jan!

And I hope you noted that you aren't in Iraq anymore as well.

Looking forward to your return! In the meantime if you want some inspiration check out the 2007 SCAHMS report I just published.

Cheers,
Jim

WOW Jan is going to be back in the house... That is some great news.

Does anybody know what happened to other guys from the old days? Nicolas Virtue (Folgore), Vlady, Yodaman, Envar, Favorisio, StugIIIF, porkchop, And I actually can go on for a while... all guys that suddenly dissapeared. All great modelers.

Pitty

With friendly greetz

Though not a member form the first minute, I was a more or less regular visitor of this site. Due to the higher work pressure on my work, the fact that my modelling corner in the attic is not accessible (we had to change it to a guest room, due to the fact that our old guest room is being transformed into a nursery) and indeed the pregnancy of my wife, I have little time to visit...
I am alive though and surely will return as a regular visitor....
