North Africa WWII
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, February 14, 2006 7:47 AM

Hi Everyone,

 

My name is Kevin Saunders and I live in SW England near Glastonbury.

I used to model when I was much younger, but now I am in my mid 40s I find myself disabled and have taken up the hobby again as I have so much time on my hands.

I like to model on the early part of the North Africa Camapaign from 1939 to 1942 when th US landed in North Africa and joined the war at last. This is mainly because my Granfather was in the 8th Army (since before the war) and I find it fascinating what he went through having been in the front line throughout the whole war.

I still have much to learn about modelling, but I am picking up the skills fairly quickly it seems.

Regards,

Kevin Saunders

Sign - Welcome [#welcome] to the forums! Pull up a keyboard and stay a while.

Hmmm, mid-40 born again modeler who's interested in WW2. Should be one or two others around...

Glastonbury, eh? The fabled resting place of the Holy Grail and Excalibur!!

So long folks!

Welcome! This is a great place to catch up on the hobby, new techniques etc. Plus, it's a great place to just hang out.

How bizarre! I know a Kevin Saunders who lives outside Glastonbury, but I doubt its the same person!

G'day Kevin and Sign - Welcome [#welcome] to the FSM forums.  Given your interest in Nth Africa, prowl around the Group Builds forum as I believe there is supposed to be an Nth Africa GB 06 coming up later in the year.  It's a lot of fun if you decide to join in.

Cheers
