Hi from sunny wales

[2RTRBadger]

Hi there Guy's and Gals,
I've come back to the hobby after many many years out and after seeing some of the vids on youtube thought this would be the place to be to get really good advise from.
I have made a few models since getting back in to the hobby (Airfix 1/72nd spitfire mk1 and tornado adv, 1/35 sitfire mk vb and a tamya 1/35 Chally 2( my personal fave as it is my tank I served on in iraq ) ).
I will post pics of then at some point so hi all and I look forward to joining some group builds in the future .
Chris

Sunny Wales?! I was just camping with the Dyfi Valley, but had to cut my holiday short because of the FREEZING TEMPERATURES and GALE-FORCE WINDS!

Welcome to ISM, mate. Look forward to seeing your builds

Thanks guy's,

Welcome aboard. I see you joined on April 1st, so I'm guessing the "Sunny" bit was a joke

[jgaudon34]

Ha, sunny Wales, like sunny St. John's Newfoundland. Most easterly part of North America, foggiest, rainiest, coolest (in both ways) and most historic.

I would really like to see your Challanger 2.

Here are the chally 2 pics as promised DR62AA was my vehicle reg and her name was BLACKBESS a really trust worthy vehicle with the best crew I ever served with

[2RTRBadger]

Oh and there's one of a younger me when I was out there lol

[2RTRBadger]

Welcome and my gawd that's a handsome tank and model.

Now IF I can ever get the cash together, I have my idea for my first model after a hiatus. My old Cav troop ride from back in the day. I just hope I can do the smoking wreck justice.

[2RTRBadger]

Thank you for the compliment, I do miss the old days on that beast would be great to see yours when you get it done If you need any advice feel free to drop me a line mate.
