Hi - Just wanted to introduce myself.

I'm from the UK, was an avid modeller some 25 years ago and now want to re-immerse myself into the hobby.

I'm absolutely staggered as how far the hobby has come (PE, specialist tools and paints, after market accessories etc) and am giddy with excitement in the prospect of re-learning everything. My preference would be 1/32 scale WW2 aircraft but I also want to explore everything else that this terrific hobby has to offer.

That's it, best wishes for the New Year to you all.

Obant.

Welcome back to the hobby, or to the end of your life as you now know it (lol). This is a great place to learn about all that's new in modeling. Happy builds and welcome again.

Thank you all for a very, very warm welcome - on the strength of this I'm certainly looking forward getting involved again and learning from skilled/experienced modellers.
