Introducing Myself

Post by PATI »

Hi to all in the forum,

I am from Albania and I've been building plastic kits since a couple of decades. With time, patience and good advice from friends I gradually managed to improve my modelling skills, undertaking more complex projects such as conversion or rebuilds, including a lot of scratch build elements. My airbrushing skills have also improved.

I normally build 1/72 kits of military aircraft from WWII onwards. For several years I had a crash on Chinese and Soviet aircraft, focusing in particular on odd or unusual types build by those nations.

By joining this interesting forum I hope I will be able to benefit from members good advice and expertise in modelling.

Welcome to the fun. You will find a great group of guys (and yes, gals) here.

Looking forward to seeing pics of some of those "unusual" types.
