I have been an observer for longer than I am willing to admit. I thought it finally time to join and introduce myself.
Some of you may know me or have chatted to me on other modelling/aviation forums where I use the same or a similar user name.
Probably like many others I started making kits as a child & I then dipped out of the hobby when alcohol, women and cars entered into my life. My local newsagents was my local kit supplier, which had a well stocked range of mainly Matchbox kits. The kit I lusted over and never got to build was the Airfix VC10 tanker in the original Camo release.
Fast forward a few years and now a little older I returned to the hobby. Enjoying occasionally building subjects of interest and also having the additional excitement and challenge of setting up an on-line model store. Offering only our own range of products. Fun exciting times and to date it hasn't quashed my enjoyment of the actual hobby side which is good.
My modelling projects generally take months/years rather than the mere hours they took as a child. The constant strive for perfection and the juggling of spare time slows things down slightly lol. I am trying to get something completed off the work bench in 2015 though. That's the aim.
Anyway that's me.
Regards Martin
