Hi from N/E England
Hi - My name is Karl, just turned 46 yrs, from near Darlington in North-East England.
I'm new to cardmodelling, but not to modelling in general - or to forums My main hobby is astronomy (I run one of the most active UK-based astronomy hobbyist forums) and am just getting into card-modelling after D/L-ing and building a cardmodel of the Hubble space telescope a few weeks ago. I've also found files for an awesome-looking cardmodel of the International Space Station - but I'm not gonna even attempt that until I get more experience under my belt. I used to build lots of plastic models when I was younger - but since getting waylaid by beer and women in my late teens, I've only occasionally kept my hand in with a 'build' on average maybe once or twice a year. Currently have a W.I.P. 1/200 Bismarck made from wood, plastic moulded bits, and etched brass panels So far I've only made 7 cardmodels, but have been amazed at how much detail you can get in some of them, and how accurate many of them can look when well-made. I'm particularly impressed with a 'Stuka' Dive bomber I made last week - though that's more a credit to a very well-designed kit, than my cardmodelling skill. Expect to see me asking the usual basic 'noob' questions over the next few weeks :D Carlos
