Hi from the States

[Airborne SF]

Hello Everyone,

 

My name is Paul, and at present I live in Utah in the US.  I was born in Portishead in Somerset, down on the Bristol Channel.  My parents emigrated to the States in 1960.  I model ships, planes and armor, mainly WWII vintage.  Aircraft covers the whole spectrum of countries and time periods, with the present build being a Mk I Swordfish (Trump 1/32) (I likes 'em big!).  Ships are a mix of British Battleships along with Japanese Battleships (all 1/350), with a 1/200 Bismarck and Missouri thrown in.  Armor is mainly WWII German, with a smattering of other subjects thrown in.  I am also building a Chieftain Mk X in Berlin camo.  I've got the turret painted, but it will take awhile to work up the strength to tackle the hull.  Modelling is maybe a strong word, maybe I should say I stash build, I buy 10 times more than I build, but I think that's the point of this hobby, isn't it?

Hi Paul, and welcome to BM. Whatever your particular bent, you'll find it covered here. I look forward to seeing your Berlin Chieftain.

Hello Paul and welcome. Think of a stash as futureproofing - you'll always be able to model with a stash.
