Hello John and

to the ISM forum.
When you get a moment please check out the forum guidelines which can be found --->
here
We'd love to see your work & progress but in order to post photos you will need to host them on an external site such as Flickr and then link to them from the forum. Unfortunately the forum currently doesn't have sufficient capacity or bandwidth to host directly uploaded photos.
There is a quick guide on how to use the Flickr integration on the forum --->
here and a couple of step by step guides in
here
As well as the forum boards there is a really useful Modeller Toolkit available which can help with paint matching, paint thinning, glue types & a scale calculator that can be found --->
here
We also run a number of group builds & special interest groups through the year so feel free to enter any of those that you like the look of - once they're set up they can be found --->
here
Otherwise take a look around and join in, and if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Have fun!

You have to create a account on a photo hosting site like FLICKR and from there you click on the forum link and place that in your thread here.

In photostream click on the image. That will highlight it as a single image. Go to bottom tight corner there is a turning arrow.click on that which will then take you to a pop up window. It has 3 options, make sure bbc code is selected. High light the code in the box......copy then paste that into your entry in the forum. Imgur can be used to and is maybe a bit less messing around. same type of procedure though.
