Welcome John

Now that you've had enough practice you can move up to a real scale ;-)

Some nice new modern stuff in 1/35 if you want to keep the different scales for different times!

Cheers

hi john welcome back to the hobby. the guys in the clubs and on the forum all work in a variety of scales and so you have a fountain of knowledge to take from. myself i work in 1/48th scale aircraft while ANDY B likes them BIGGGG. philip is into the true scale? 1/72 and ken likes a challenge with the 1/144. the armour guys are mainly 1/35 with some doing great work on the smaller scales.

John - that's true. Like Stephen says, I am into the "one true scale" - that is, of course, 1/72nd. So are Simon (TrooperN), Paul (ei-ylg) - most of the time, though he has been known to do 1/76 armour and the odd 1/144 scale thingy - and Vincent (murfv). Vincent and I also do SF in whatever scales are available - doesn't really matter - who knows how big, or small, an alien is anyhow.....
