Hello there shipmates

I thought I'd post a short item to introduce myself, once again...

I used to post here under the moniker HippityHop. Whilst I remain a Talking Heads/ TomTom Club fan, I'm pleased to say I won't be using that mildly ridiculous name again...

Anyhoo, after a particularly busy spell in terms of my professional life, home renovations (or should that be home rebuilding) and a lengthy spell visiting the out-laws in Queensland, I'm finally finding some time for my new love; (war)ship modelling.

I'm hoping to post some photos of my latest build, the DKM Graf Spee in 1/720, in the coming weeks. If there's interest, I'd also like to submit some pics of the River class frigate HMAS Diamantina, which is preserved in Brisbane's historic dry dock as part of the Queensland Maritime Museum.

Cheers for now

Karol

Welcome back Karol.

Thanks Rodger

I'm very hopeful that I'll be hanging around here on a much more regular basis now - and contributing to boot.

The Graf Spee's in its final build stages (AAA and rigging), and will be probably be followed by a Cushing and Juneau dio, then I've got HM ships Triumph and Hood. I'm really looking forward to the mighty 'ood (all in 1/700).

Cheers

Karol

Karol,

Well, welcome back. Looking forward to seeing your Graf Spee when she is finished.
