Hello from Germany

Hello everyone!

 

I'm David from Munich. I am still a student for now, and just finished up my degree in history in London. Will probably proceed to medical school in the autumn. So I hopefully will have some more free time to do modelling than I have than now, as I am working over the summer.

 

I started modelling when I was six. My parents gifted me a 1/144 F-18 that I absolutley butchered 🤪

 

It got real when I was aorund 14-16, when I got an airbrush and started using aftermarket items, leading to a slight addition to the later. 

 

My interests are mainly 1/48 aircraft and to a lesser extent 1/35 vehicles. This in turn is split around 70:30 into post and pre-1945 stuff, mostly Soviet and respective small air forces client states and Nazi Germany/Italy for the later. In particular, I adore the MiG-23 Flogger series, particularly the duck-nosed attack versions (I know, I know, you either love or hate those 😅)

 

However, I have to admit that since I started studying abroad in the UK I have had far less time to work due to frequent travel etc. and thus only finished two models this year so far. Hopefully the pace will pick up soon. 

 

I have also signed up to the proposed India-Pakistan and Nukes group builds to get to know this community a little better. 

 

Best wishes,

David

Welcome, David. Looking forward to seeing your builds. Best wishes for your medical studies - will you be studying in Germany? 

 

Q

Who has hung up his stethoscope and returned late in life to modelling, only to discover poorer eyesight and shaky hands!

Thanks you Q! Yep, will be heading back to Germany to save on tuition fees. But loved staying in the UK for a few years and made a bunch of great friends! 
 

Ill share a few of my older builds once I get back home and get a chance to take decent photographs.
