Global Scale Modeller

Hi Guys,

I'm Bob, new to the hobby other than a few Airfix kits built as a kid in the 1970's.

I got into the hobby by accident in the break between Christmas and New Year. I was at home while Mrs B was at work, fairly bored so I packed the kids into the car and headed out into the fog to Hobbycraft to find something to do. As I was mooching around I found myself in the model section and a Tamiya Challenger 1 jumped out at me (actually my youngest knocked it off the shelf ).

I enjoyed making it so much I bought a few more kits, and so far have completed the Challenger, a Chieftain Mk V and a Ferrari F430. I've got a Spitfire in my meager stash which I'm going to build next.

Cheers,

Bowcat

Hi Bob. You do realise that in a year or so your stash will fill at least one room...

to ISM.

Thanks for the warm welcome all.

Avgas, I kinda guessed that, I've already had to move my paints, weathering products, tools etc from a plastic box into a 3 drawer bedside table that has been re-purposed.

I've still got a couple of aircraft, a tank and another Ferrari to build, so going to try and at least get half of them built before buying more. Saying that, I haven't done a German WW2 AFV yet, so might have to pick one up when I'm at Hobbycraft next for paints. Ssh, don't tell the wife.

welcome aboard

Hello bob welcome and enjoy

Hi Bob,
I understand what you're saying. After watching just a few of Phil and Lee's videos, it became clear that an addition was needed in my home. Best of luck.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.
