Neil.C Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hello there! I've just taken an interest in modelling again after a forty odd years lapse. Found an Airfix Spitfire MK1A at a boot sale in the summer for 50p, have amateurishly built it and thoroughly enjoyed the experience again after all those years. I've ordered a few kits from Kingkit to keep me happy over the holiday period, so away we go. No doubt I'll be asking some gormless questions in the forum but will probably keep the experienced bods amused. Anyway, glad to be here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Mc Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Blimey - 1977. What was I building back in 1977? I remember having a go at converting an Airfix Sunderland into an Antilles Air Boats Sandringham. Luckily, that aberration no longer exists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) Hello Neil ... Welcome back to Modeling and Welcome to Britmodeller.

Revell FW190 Academy Grumman F4F Novo Tempest. When I last bought a model it was all Airfix, Revell and Frog so a lot of these makes are new to me. Anyway I'll see how I go.

Yes, I think a lot of us had family stuff and were busy earning money etc and now we find more time for ourselves. ☺ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
