Hello

Post by MAD STEVE »

Hello Everyone
My name is Steve (hellooooo Steve) and I'm from Joburg in South Africa

My main focus of interest is Cars and Bikes, but I have started to dabble with WW1 Aircraft of late.
Been modelling around 35 years, since I was ten, and basically the addiction has carried on my whole life :-D

Lots of us car modelling types down here in Africa's bottom and I do a monthly newsletter type thingy for the gang.

Airfix kits are where I started, and the odd one creeps in every now and again.
Secret loves are the old 54mm figures and the Railway Models

This place looks like a hoot... and I'll try not to embarass you ;-)

Welcome aboard, Steve !
We have a few car & bike guys, very good BTW, some very good rigged aircraft guys, a definitely a few rail fans, if you check out our CBK SIG display at Telford/SMW this year - so seems like a good fit - dive right in !

Welcome aboard Steve. I have a bit of a passion for South African subjects particularly Mirages so I might pick you brained sometime.
