Hello all

Hello fellow modellers,

My name is Harry I am 60 yrs old and have been modelling on and off for about 50 years. I am from The UK and have transitioned from dining room table modelling to my own Shed!
I build all types of models in the most popular scales. I also paint miniatures but that's getting harder the older I get. Oddly enough I find 1/72 scale the most comfortable to work in for armour..probably because I am impatient and can build, paint and weather a vehicle in a few days.....before I lose the mojo.

This site is a goldmine and i look forward to chatting and seeing your models. If you want to see any of my other types of models let me know

Harry

Bonjour Harry,

Bienvenue au sein de ce groupe de passionnés de l'echelle 72e!
Bigre, je vais devoir revoir mon anglais! Heureusement qu'il y a google translator!
Je suis content de voir un maquettiste étranger participer pour faire de ce forum une mine d'or.
Au plaisir de voir tes réalisations.

Well hello Harry from Scarborough. I am not too far away, top end of the North York Moors, near Stokesley. You will see that there is a section for English speakers, but it has limited membership. Limited to me.

Too old to model at 60? Heck I am 69 and getting better at it. My French is ....OK....but Google translate does help!

Bienvenue, Liam

Welcome to you, Liam will feel less alone.

Hi Harry
Welcome in your new forum.
J'espère que tu y trouveras ce que tu recherchais.

With pleasure.

Bonsoir

Sois le bienvenu sur ce forum du 1/72è. Je vois que tu as fais un Corsaire aux couleurs françaises, "French Air Force SIG", IPMS UK fait aussi ce type d'avions. Désolé, mais mon anglais remonte à l'année scolaire 1958-1959, alors...

Cordialement
