Greetings from South Africa

Post by RoscoRSA »

Hi ISM,

Greeting from the southern tip of Africa. I have been casually visiting the forum for the past few months, really enjoying the quality content to be found here.

I recently started up this hobby again, and I have to say the info I managed to find here has (and is) helping me improve the quality of my models.

Here are a few of my more recent models:

Oldest (left) to Newest (Right)

I am also going to start my very first attempt to do a build log, by replacing the old bearcat, the academy decals are disintegrating by the day (the kit was very old when I build it)

Luckily, the new one is a Hobby boss kit that's coming together nicely.
On the bench:

Tamiya 1:48 MIG-15

On Hold
Academy 1:48 F-86 Saber
