Hi Everyone,
I registered with the forum yesterday; I am 32 and live in Reading, UK.

I decided to start modelling again last year; I used to love making kits when I was a kid 20 years ago, and I felt like having another go. Thanks to the internet, I found lots of tips and tools that I never knew about years ago, and it is great to see other modeller's work on the forums.

I am also on the Airfix Tribute Forum:

And also on Britmodeller Forum:

I don't use an airbrush, so all of my builds are painted and finished by hand. I spent time on my builds, and never rush. I enjoy the process of making and finishing a kit, and just try to do the best job I can without obsessing over rivets or whatever other details.

I love visiting air museums, and my favourite aircraft are british jets from the post war era, especially from the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s, although I am interested in other periods and types as well.

I have hust started an Airfix Harrier, so you can follow my progress here:
