Hello from Norfolk UK

Post by MrGav »

Hello everyone I'm Gav I'm 32 from Norfolk England & I'm just getting back into the hobby (I previously slapped glue on spitfires as a child) Have not long moved to a new house with room to do the hobby but was a little bewildered - what kit to buy? what tools do I need? Ect... Then I discovered ISM what an incredible sorce of inspiration & information!

I have an interest in anything ww2 so there's plenty of kits out there for me to spend my wages on! Really glad I've taken up modelling again I'm only on my 1st kit but I'm having so much fun I can't wait to start the next - guess that's how it gets you :)

Take care everyone see you around.
