Hello from Canada

Post by Splashcoat »

Hi, Everyone,

I'm from Southern Ontario and I've been modeling for about 25 years or so. Initially, an interest in WW2 German armour is what got me building; I then focused on 1/72 aircraft for a few years. Currently, I build mostly science fiction subjects but I do have an unhealthy obsession with Jeeps and other military soft-skins.

I look forward to sharing some of my work and seeing what other people are building... and learning a thing or two along the way.

Cheers,
John

Nice to have you aboard, the more, the merrier :). I'm sure you'll find this a very open-minded and hospitable forum and I'm sure you'll pick up lots of hints and tips along the way :grin:

How's it going, eh? Welcome to the forum John. Its nice to have another SciFi guy aboard. I usually do WWII aircraft myself but lately I've been doing stuff of the SciFi nature. I look forward to your Viper Mk I build. I have 2 Mk II on my bench at the moment along with a Cylon Raider. I'm currently totally obsessed with the Battlestar kits.

I'm not that close to Leamington. I live about 350km northeast of there in King City.
Cheers.
