G'day!

[Delta Hotel]

Hello all,
I stumbled across this great site while surfing the net for inspiration(and there is certainly some inspiration here). I am from Australia and have been trying to improve my modelling skills since I was knee high to a grasshopper. I enjoy building armour of all kinds and even the odd wingy thingy. At the moment I have more WIP's than finished kits but as we all know life gets in the way sometimes.
Thanks for having me on board,
David.

Welcome David, glad to have you stumble in.

Are Australian grasshoppers as fearsome and deadly as some of your other insects?

:laugh:

Make yourself at home.

You had a windscreen left ? or just a big hole where it was hmy: .

Richie hit one near Dubbo , it wrote his work car off , came through the window and broke his nose .
