Greetings from Silesia - Poland

Hello everybody,
I was literally stunned when I found your forum. I was sure that papermodeling is only a part of east-european folclore...
My "adventure with paper" started almost 20 years ago. Last year, after very long break I returned to my old hobby.
As a kid I was interested in aviation, now I'm rather focused on armored vehicles.
Cheers, Konrad

Welcome, Konrad! If you like armored vehicles, you will find much good information and many friends here.
Please send photographs of some of your work; we love photographs.

Welcome to the forum Konrad. I agree with what Thomas said. This
is where you need to be for your paper hobby to mature as you
gain experience....Ron

These are my "last year achievements":

- Hummer (M1025 modification of old FlyModel)
- Spitfire Ia (Halinski)
- BTR-80
- FV101 Scorpion
- Me109
- IS-3
- T34

I created the galleries, but it will take me some time to get used to the forum. I'm still not sure how these galleries work :(

Currently I'm building Bradley M2.

Hello, Konrad! If you are from Poland, the Land of Paper Modeling Heroes, then you are very welcome here.

Looking at your beautiful models, it appears that you haven't forgotten anything during your long break - very nice work!

WOW - nice builds Konrad, getting those results from a vintage Malay Modelarz kit shows a lot of skill and experience. I really like the Scorpion.
~Welcome aboard.

Sometimes coming back to old passion might be an interesting experience. In early 90' things were very different in paper modelling. No internet, poor materials, simple techniques. Now, thanks to you and forums like that one all good ideas are within a grasp of a hand.
