Whatever you make, there'll be likeminded members...............

      Pretty much the same as yourself Dave in that it's mostly military, air, land or sea but anything goes.
      Currently have a 1.400 enterprise on the go, amongst other things to break up the monotony of all those tiny parts, but may have bitten off more than I can chew with this one!

        Some of the things I've done so far in various stages/attempts at slight weathering. My loft is my workspace so have to be careful in what paints etc I use as ventilation is almost non-existent. Running out of space so the hard decisions will have to be made soon!

              Same here, a belated warm welcome...too late to persuade you to get another hobby...you're already in the middle of a mine field of mixed genres as seen on your displays and already enjoying it. The guys can only give support and encouragement...half of them are loony including myself and beyond help.:smiling6:

              Cheers,
              Richard aka Wabble

                    Another belated welcome Ritchie
                    Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                      A late welcome ,looks like you've cracked it already its good your not stuck in the one subject modeling cupboard like many of us ,scratchbuilder has left you with a strong piece of advice airbrush wise I too now use mainly my cheap /cheaper ones the posh stuff rarely see's the light of day ,bit like golf clubs you can spend out what you like but it won't improve your game. My only mantra modeling wise is to try and make my current build better than the last ,oh and dont compare yours to other peoples there's some very talented people out there i use stuff that makes me go wow as inspiration to bash on with what I'm doing.
