Hello friends, old and new...

Post by B4en »

Hello everyone. I am Ben, and I model the three 'A's armour, artillery, and aircraft - pretty much in that order. I sometimes stray into trucks or cars, and may even one day do a floaty thing or two. But probably no trains. These days I am obliged to do larger scale stuff due to Graves' Disease doing things to my eyes. Those of you who know me from ATF may have followed my progress with that particular cross...

I've been lurking for a while and must say there are some excellent builds on show and the forum seems a nice relaxed place for some modelling banter. Forgive me if I am a bit slow responding at times - the old peepers can't focus so well on the keyboard!

Well I'd better get on and post a build. Models speak louder than words. :)

Thanks for the warm welcome. :) I hope I can get a few interesting/fun builds done over the next few months. The stash is demanding attention...

Cheers all I'm delighted to be here. :)
I seem unable to get an avatar image to work using the img codes. Does it have to be a particular size?
