Steve147 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Hello everyone. My name is Steve and I live in South Devon. When I was a kid (many years ago), I spent most of my pocket money on building model kits (predominantly Airfix). I took up the hobby again a couple years ago and have getting on for 200 built kits to date. I am mainly interested in building WW2 military and aircraft, but do have the complete IBG WW2 1/700 scale boats as well as Airfix and a couple other scale boats and other kits as well. I have put a post on the WW2 aircraft, regarding the paints required for a 1/48 Mitsubishi J2 Raiden, so if you can help, please respond there.. Happy modelling everyone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are loads of different ones, some free and some you pay for. I use one I pay for. When you have your photos on the hosting site you can then copy the photo code, usually its a BBcode, and paste it into Britmodeller. The photo hosting site will usually have instructions on how to do this or come back on here and ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArnoldAmbrose Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Gidday again, I use Flikr myself, the first 1000 photos are free. It's simple to use although my son set it up for me - I'm a technological Neanderthal. Regards, Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Hi and welcome to the forum. I like you have 200 kits but mine are unbuilt and I have been back in the saddle about five years. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
