I like the idea and think that there is a lot of potential to develop here.

Great feature indeed!
What Rob says, is the living proof of what I have felt in Telford, last year!
A great group of guys, who happen to be ship modelers and good persons make it worthwhile just to pay a visit... Excellent, and really inspiring works, too!
Cheers
Skipper

Hey all,
Great interveiw and a great guy. If I'm ever on that side of the pond I'll have to let you all know and we can have a few,I'll even but a round. Don't know when that would be since I haven't been across the pond since "89" but who knows.

Great idea Gunny and thank you Rob
Not only an interview but a feast of pictures, I've got to wipe the drool off the keyboard now.
Rob, Skipper hope to meet you at Telford.

Yes, Luciano
I'll be around, much like last year - and although I met Jim Baumann, Rob, Peter, Mike McCabe and so many other ship modelers, I also met Jim Starkweather, Mal Malfield and some other Armorama.UK "British Bulldogs" (still have my badge!!!!), but I miss, with a great regret, Pete Vill (PeteV).
It's a question of arranging a meeting place and a time
Never missed this way
Cheers,
Skipper

I didn't think I'ld like it, but not only did I enjoy the pictures, I really enjoyed reading the article. I especially like his opinions about competitions. I know here in Dallas, some of the competition classes get down right ugly when the results are announced. I'm glad I withdrew from doing that....not that i was any big prize winner, I did win a 3rd and a 2nd once, and to be honest, I am glad that so many like to compete as I get to look at their stuff.

Another of these great modelers that are building just the right period of history

Hi Jean~Bernard!
Take a look at the article again, mate...I do believe that I was in the midst of a re-edit, at the same time that you were straining your eyes to the italics!!

Hi all,
Ain`t you the lucky ones, I tried to read the article and all I got was the following message:-
You are not authorised to view that article
Some one trying to tell me some thing, if so just come out with it, I assume that in time some one will prove it was my mistake, and yes I was logged in.
Think I`ll go back to modeling aircraft (LOL)

Gunny,
When I click on the link I get a message that I'm not authorized to view the article.
Any idea why

Everything looks ok on this end, mates, give it another go...I gave the article a facelift this morning, maybe it was in the "upload" stage when you were trying to view it...

Oh how happy you have made me.
I`m H. A. P. P. Y,
