    Hello from the West Country.

    Hi all. I'm another refugee from Milmod. Like many of us I suppose, I caught the modelling bug as a kid. My first ever build was an Airfix Spitfire which I bought in the Naafi in Paderborn at the age of about 7. It cost me the princely sum of 1 Deutsche Mark! Then in my teens I discovered girls and booze, and gave up modelling for about twenty five years. I started again about five years ago, mostly Braille scale vehicles, and figures of all sizes from 20mm up. Here are a few by way of introduction.

    Cheers,

    Windy

    P.S. I live about five miles from the Tank Museum so if anyone wants any pics just give me a shout. I get in for free!

    And a couple of vehicles:

      Geddon Janner! Cheers Steve. It's good to be back on a friendly forum. I had a look on a couple òf others but the level of rivet counting was quite terrifying! So I wound up here.

              Thanks Graham. No, it's not Harper! Sergeant of the 60th Rifles, from El Greco I think. It was sold as 54mm but it's closer to 65!
