Hello from Flanders Fields

Post by Matthijs »

Hello my name is Matthijs, 32 years young. I live in Heule, a small town near Kortrijk and 15 minutes with the car from Ypres.
I am a WW1 - WW2 enthousiast and also a scale modeller from the first hour, started when I was a kid around the age of 10 - with a "youth pause"
(I guess from my 15th untill i started again at the age of 25)
Mostly I build 1/48 scale planes and 1/72 - 1/35 AFV's.
I have a wife and three kids (daughter - 7 year, son - 3 year, son - 1 year)
regards,

Matthijs

Beetje laat maar toch een welgemeend "welkom aan boord"

In forum language : A bit late but nevertheless "Welcome aboard"
