And NOW! Introducing!!!

Posted by RichardI on Thursday, February 12, 2004 6:15 PM

Me!

Hi all! I'm new here as you've already guessed. I'm from Canada (the home of Wayne Gretzky and Mike Weir - must be something in the water Wink [;)]

)
I model WWII aircraft exclusively (so far). I have a Badger 200NH, an Aztek AC200, and a 30 x 60 table in the basement. I also have a cabinet with models in it. Right now I'm building Tamiya's great P-47 razorback (myfavorite plane of all). I love building and learning about WWII fighters in particular. And, I have a lot of questions for you veteran modellers. I've only been at it for about 4 or 5 years. Hope to be discussing airbrushing tips with a lot of you.

Rich Cool [8D]

On the bench: 1/48 Revell PBY Catalina 0A-10A. Next up: Moebius 1/24 Chariot from Lost in Space.

Who's Wayne Gretzky??? I mean, I've heard of guys like Sawchuk, Esposito, Richter, Roy, Plante, oh oh !! I think I have heard of him, hes one of those wusses that skates around and shoots the puck at the goalie.

just kidding, I play hockey between the posts with 40-odd lbs. of equipment strapped on, if you haven't realized it. Big Smile [:D]

Welcome to the Forums, Rich! Hey, maybe you can post a few pics of that razorback when it's done! i've seen the tamiya kits on the shelf and they look REAL nice.

Don't play much hockey over here either... well, it may have something to do with the fact that i live in the tropics. Tongue [:P]
