Hi there - yet another displaced MM member

I've been modelling for around 40yrs - mainly AFV's but will try anything if it takes my fancy, and in any scale

Have been scratchbuilding for over 30yrs including a spell making masters for a resin model company

I have a bad habit of cutting up old kits and trying to correct them and for adding lots of details that will never be seen again

Mr T
Well I am made up that you have joined as well. Looking forward to your continued help with my work. As it's still early for you I will let you get on with your work. I have an idea for a new bed by your bench.

Hello Chaps, good to see everyone got a boat back to Blighty, It was a bit tense at MM of late, but now we have a new family and we have to play by their rules, unfortunately no nudity, sexual innuendos, or drunken hilarity, Just the finest Moggelers the site has seen.
he he!

Hi Simon, glad you made it over, your stuff is always good to see.....nice to have the reminder of times past as well.

Evan mate, we are guests on a new site, we can’t just carry on as if we never left MM, it would be rude . The desert GB as a whole is therefore dead as it was a MM GB. Obviously we can post the individual builds here if we want to. For my part, when I finish my current build I will find out what GBs are on and probably join in....
Cheers
Tim
