    Howdy! I love building anything military, but my favourite are tanks and figures. I build a few planes, but I'm not really very good at them :P Alan

    Thanks all for the warm welcome! Quick question - do I post pictures of my work in the Gallery? Can I post modelling pics (ie not just papercraft models)? Thanks again! Alan
