Seems to be a recurring theme...

Welcome to this forum from a modeller with a rather similar, just a bit muddier, history.
I learned a lot and still discovering how the hobby evolved since the '80s with the help of the most useful modellers' madhouse ever established.

Another warm welcome Shipton.
If your mad like many on here you'll enjoy it .

Hello and welcome!

Welcome!
I've only delved one into the world of winged WW1 and struggled with the rigging to the point I didn't enjoy the build.

I'm tempted to do a WW1 aircraft again now I've learnt some techniques but will wait for someone here (wink) to point me in the direction of a really good kit...

Shipton,
welcome to the forum - 1/48 WWI aircraft? I've turned out quite a lot over the years, but only a few over the last couple of years. Last three were the Eduard Albatross D.III & Fokker DVII, and the Roden Junkers D.I, but I still have a few in the stash, waiting for my next WWI phase. They're a little more difficult to make, now - aging fingers etc etc, but they're still good every now and then!

And a warm welcome from Germany too Shipton!!! Only have one WWI aircraft in the stash and it's in 1/32. 1/48 is too small for my old eyes. Would love to see what you're up to with them too......

Prost

You talk about yourself old man, I have the papers to prove I am only crazy and not mad - my analist said so.....

Welcome Shipton,
Looking forward to seeing your work and it does not matter what you think of it or try to hide it, you will always get a warm welcome here.
Cheers, Mike.
