Greetings to all
Posted by DavidM on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 4:53 AM

Hi everyone

I joined over the weekend and have been overwhelmed by the friendly way my queries have been answered. In the few days I have been around I have learnt so much from the forums and and have taken great pleasure in just reading and absorbing information.

I have been out of modelling for 30+years and decided to take it up again. Unfortunately, here in South Africa it is not a major pastime and hence obtaining materials, be it kits or paint is not the easiest of tasks. Hence the pleasure of seeing what is available via the internet from so many stores in other countries.

I used to model WW2 armour, but with starting again, who knows in what direction I will go. I suppose that it depends on what I can obtain "locally".

Thanks once again for the friendly welcome. I think I shall really enjoy it.

Hi David,

Welcome to the forums, and welcome back to the hobby.

One thing that we have in abundance here is people who are ready and willing to share their collective knowledge.

Cheers, and have fun getting back into it,

Phil
