Hi everyone, I took up armour modelling a couple of years ago at the ripe old age of 74, after seeing some examples in magazines and being fascinated by all the weathering techniques.
My only previous experience was Airfix kits of Spitfires when I was a kid, however, I recently acquired a Bandai 1/16 Pendle Princess Traction Engine kit which must be about 30/40 years old.
I'm really looking forward to building this but may need some advice from the experts on here.
Wish me luck :rolleyes:

Welcome to the forum Alastair. Join in and enjoy sharing this great hobby.
That geriatric traction engine kit is a true classic. I hope you will make a thread on here of the build.
