Hi to all

Post by oldun »

Hello, as my name implies I'm getting on a bit (65), I started modelling when I was about 9 or 10 but as I grew 22 yrs in the forces and another 9 as a distance truck driver stopped me pursuing my hobby, although I did do one ore two in this period. Anyway I came across the video's on the net made by Lee and Paul and my interest was reawakened, so I now have the Eduard F16 top falcons (just love the f16) plus a fair amount paints, tools etc. The only thing I can't find in the UK are the Mr. color super metallic paints. So there we have it as a ROG ( retired old git) my eyes are fine and my hands steady, well I haven't spilt a whisky yet and I have plenty of time. When I ask a question on the forum it might seem daft to you but that's because you know the answer and I don't because I'm a newbie. :th:
