Belated intro

Posted by rabbiteatsnake on Thursday, December 7, 2006 7:12 AM

I've been posting pretty steady for a couple weeks now, and don't get many responses. So maybe I should say a bit about myself. I'm 47 I've been modeling for 42, was a SPFX make up artist & modelmaker for 25 yrs. Now I'm a freelance artist/producer of figs & conversion kits. A long hair rock & roll type, who does'nt know when to quit. And a professer of tips techniques and trivia. And I'd like to get to know some of you better. R.E.S Oh and I don't bite

Welcome aboard, R.E.S. I hope you don't get frustrated by the lack of reponses. It has happened to me also but then one day, BAM, everybody will have something to say.

Hang in there. It really is the best place on the web.

Hello jinithith2 et al.

Correction, making; they're not quite done yet. First is a Ju 87 G Kannonenvogel("cannonbird")for MPC's 1/24th Ju87B Stuka(A beautiful kit on its own, just an over produced version, in my opinion.). Next is a Ta 152 conv for Airfix's 1/24th Fw190. They will feature new engine and gun castings, resin replacements/additions, vac-u-formed skins and a small fret of PE*Stuka only.

I hope to have the Stuka built and the kits ready for IPMS nats this year.

Thanks all for the welcomes and all be well.
