abyssware Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hello everybody. I am 44 from Belgium and recently discovered this amazing hobby (despite my passion for history and engineering, never looked into modelling). I spent a lot of time on forums and youtube trying to understand a bit the complexity of modelling before taking the leap and start my own models; Started late 2019 with a T17E1 Staghound, recently finalized a Sherman Easy8 and now started an aircraft. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abyssware Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 This is how my Staghound came out - many mistakes and over-weathered, but is my first model and deserve a special photo 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shashman Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Welcome from a fellow (almost)Belgian! Whereabouts are you from? I was so disappointed to find out that both 'Point 50' and 'Au 16eme Escadron' model shops were gone when I was last in Brussels a couple of months ago :( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very new to hobby, never was into such a shop. I order things online from another Belgium webshop (have a regular shop, but too far from me). Wont say the name as they are not sponsors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
