Hi all, new member here. You may have seen some of work on a previous forum, collection consists of 70's up to mid 80's 1/43 scale models in UK. I do not have very many models, think around 14, and I tend to concentrate on quality over quantity. I like to correct a model so to speak, making it look as realistic as possible and in sync with rest of collection. To do one model normally takes ages, some longer than others depending on the work required. Pics to be up in due course, I'll post on a more appropriate section of the forum. :thumb2:

Thanks all. Seems like a very friendly forum! Happy to share my work and hopefully people enjoy. For me it's all about nostalga, yesteryear, hopefully some of my collection stirs up a lot of fond memories for members. Yep they are 1/43 scale.
New thread started here https://www.scale-models.co.uk/threads/1985-uk-car-park-1-43-scale.39884/ hopefully in the right section!

Well, welcome to the shambles mate. 1/43 seems an odd scale but, then again, everything (and everybody) on this scale is odd ...

Lol, thanks. I find cost and space wise 1/43 to be the most suitable scale but of course each to their own. Irrespective, it’s all about enjoyment and this seems a very warm forum even if we are all odd
