I'm Gareth, 40 something, and four years ago returned to model making. I have a small shed in the garden rigged out as a workshop, and spend as much time as I can out here in peace!
I like aircraft from my childhood best, so late Cold War stuff lie Tornadoes and Jaguars are my favourite. The Falklands War is a particular interest. Although I haven't build much from that theme yet I have a growing stash of subjects to be getting on with.
My refuelling Tornado is probably my most satisfying project so far as it had me doing a few things I'd never attempted before and learning a lot.
I hope International Scale Modeller is very successful. You can't have too many places to go asking questions and learning new skills and techniques.
Cheers,
Gareth
I found your comment about the Falklands War interesting. I was down there in 1982 and have to admit that I had never thought about looking for models from that time period. I do remember a lot of very cool Argentinian vehicles. You've got me thinking now mate
