Tilly mad!

[mshackleton]

Hi guys
My name is Mike Shackleton and I've been interested in military vehicles from the year dot.
I've been modelling since my dad showed me how to when I was a kid - much like most of you I guess.

In recent years I've become more involved by designing all of Barbarossa Books publications - i run a small design company - and even to the extent of writing the Leopard 1 Trilogy. From one extreme to another, I also help to run The Tilly Register having become interested in them when i bought a Hillman Tilly back in 1999. Before that I had a Ferret Mark 1. The Tilly has now gone but my interest in them is stronger than ever.

Regards
Mike Shackleton
Tilly Register

Barbarossa Books eh? That is where I know your name from!



While British softskins don't really interest me, their armoured cars do(yes, I respectfully added the extraneous 'u' we Americans frugally save)!

Welcome Mike.
