Hi everybody.
I’ve just joined after lurking around for a while.
My main modelling subjects are cars, trucks & prop-liners but I also have a keen interest, some would say obsession in modelling Regia Aeronautica & Regio Esercito subjects. Italian history is another favourite of mine.
Like most of us I cut my teeth on Airfix kits when I was a nipper. I’ve got fond memories of building models with my Dad, usually on a wet Sunday afternoon (he was a dairy farmer & Sunday afternoons was the only time he would take off) in front a roaring log fire in the lounge, happy days.
Dave. |

Hi Dave, and  to the ATF! You'll fing loads of useful tiops and advice here. And remember, according to somebody else's words that are not my own, (sorry!) the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. Hope you enjoy your time here!

Ayup DG...
Welcome to ATF, Best on the Web.
You'll get on well with 'Our' Ron, fluff75, then. He's an Sm 79 fan and a half ! (and the Regia too !)

I spend time on the Britmodeller, IPMS UK & Truck Model World forums which are great places to hang out. Now I’ve joined you guys I’ll be loitering around here too. 
See you in the forums.
