Hello from Derbyshire

Post by andyram »

Hi to you all,
Came into plastic modelling over the last couple of years after many years of rc Boats,Cars and Planes.Attended IMPS Telford last November and was blown away by the standard you guys and gals achieve.
I am building(very slowly) a Kenworth Tipper and a Chevy bel air at the moment and already the stack of "to do's" is growing.
I hope to pick up a lot of tips from all of you and must say this seems a very friendly site and I am pleased to be aboard.

Andy :)

Hi Andy and welcome. I echo John's comment that it will be great to see work from another car builder on the forum.

+1 from me, too! Welcome on board from a Derbyshire born and bred fellow car-modeller... Holymoorside, just outside Chesterfield, before you ask the obvious next question!
