Hi there, So… another modelling forum to follow! My name is Ian, I’m 45 and based in Reading in the UK. I used to build scale model kits as a kid, though they tended to end up as glue smeared messes that ended up flying out of the window or shot at with an air gun. As I hit my teens I left modelling and started mucking around with early computers (such as the Sinclair ZX-81) only return back to kit modelling about 6 years ago. I mainly build 1/35 scale armour, but will have a go at anything that takes my fancy… which is what brought me to the Model Space forums! I’ve signed up for my first ever part build – the Millennium Falcon. I’m looking forward to it as it will be something quite different, even if I’m already intimidated by the size and cost! Not too bothered about the duration though, as most of my builds take a couple of years to finish! I’m not what you would call a fast modeller! You can see some of my work here and here. Cheers, Ian If it is only a game then why are you keeping score?
