Hello fellow model builders. My name is Andy and I am English living in the UK. I made contact with your forum through Tomas after I read an article about the Vilnius Model Show in an English model magazine. I am fortunate enough to have a girlfriend who is from Lithuania,a small village called Paluknys which is located between Vilnius and Trakai.
The reason behind my asking to join your forum is mainly out of my interest in military aviation and also that I spent 11 years as a soldier in the British Army. I cannot seem to shake off the a.ttraction of the Armed Forces so keep my interest going by building models.
I have a rather keen interest in the Panavia Tornado in all it's types, from the GR1 to GR4 the IDS and ECR versions and also the F2/3 ADV variant used by our Royal Air Force.
I also like military history from the Vietnam war and it's aircraft. Mainly the F105 THUNDERCHIEF and the A1 Skyraider.
It would be nice to get to see your show one day,easily done as we visit Lithuania quite alot during the year. So,I look forward to meeting up with you all one day in the future,enjoying looking through your modelling skills and hopefully being able to share some of your building techniques?
I have attached a photo of one of my builds,the Tornado GR4a this is an anniversary special scheme from Xtradecal in 1/48th scale celebrating 100 years of 2 Squadron RAF.
Viso geriausio......Andy
