Introduction
Posted by addunbar on Tuesday, December 2, 2003 11:22 AM
My name is Alex , I am 46 years old, and I live in Maryland. I am relatively new to model building -- built a few as a kid. I decided to take up armor model building about 2 years ago. To date I have completed one Revell Panther ausf A (1/72) and Tamiya's Panzer II (1/35). I have a couple of other works in progress.

I am very interested in the current Panther group-build. I hope to find the inspiration I need to get going on the couple of 1/35 Panthers I have stashed away. I have a couple of Panther dioramas bouncing around in my head, but have not gotten going on them, yet.
