TonyW Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Greetings from the Flatlands of the UK, just outside of Ely. A bit about me...I'm a lapsed car modeller. American Hot Rods, Customs and Muscle from the twenties to the mid seventies in the main, although I stray off to aircraft now and again. I'm re-joining the clan after discovering the Round2 releases at last years Telford IPMS show. The '68 Road Runner box just blew me away. That one, plus a few others came home with me and I've been digging old kits out of long term storage and finding stuff I had forgotten I had! I'm a builder and a collector. My idea of heaven is to have a mint, unbuilt kit displayed next to built up examples of the same. That pretty much doubles the effort involved in getting to there, but I enjoy it anyway. Dealer and Store displays make me go a bit weak at the knees as well.I'm a great fan of Monogram kits from the early wooden ones right up to the re-releases and new issues, although I find it a bit odd to see old favorites in Revell boxes!I'm happy to build box stock or to add details. Both ways work just fine for me. I've been building and collecting all my life and have enjoyed every minute of it.I have a ton of stuff to post here but I'll take a good look around and get the feel of the place before I get stuck in. It looks like a very friendly place to be, with some quite outstanding models on show.Thanks for having me on board, I'm looking forward to taking part.Tony.
