Hello from Christchurch in New Zealand
Hi everybody. Have just registered here after lurking over the last week or so.
Have been modelling off and on since I was seven (some 38 years ago now). Due to a series devastating earthquakes here over a two year period since September 2010 I am only just getting back into it now (had to wait for house repairs and had everything in storage- most of it still there). But things are good now. Main areas of interest are 1/48 Naval aircraft, british jets, anything RNZAF and whatever takes my fancy at the time.
Hope to maybe learn a thing or two here and maybe offer the odd gem myself.
So I guess I will be seeing you all around.
Cheers,
Sean

Re: Hello from Christchurch in New Zealand
Thanks for the early welcomes guys. Greatly appreciated.
Hope to start throwing up build pics of a 1/48 Harvard build based on the Italeri T-6G Texan soon. Intention is to have her done in a mid 1960s Silver and dayglo Fire Orange RNZAF training scheme. Just picked her up from storage early today.
Cheers,
Sean.
