Hello from the land where the Pasties roam

Post by Simon Hammerton »

Greetings and Salutations from West Cornwall

Simon here, some of you may know me but don't let that put you off.

After concentrating mainly on WWII AFVs, I'm moving on to post-WWII/Cold War/Modern, selling some of my old kits and replacing (re-insulating the loft according to Carolyn) with some of the terrific stuff now hitting the market.

I've been modelling for 45+years and a photographer for 30+, so hopefully I have something of value to offer.

Cheers Simon

Hi Simon!

Welcome to Plastic Armour! Make yourself at home :D

Sounds like you have a lot to offer us, not only in modeling, but in the realms of photography.

It's actually a very old face, but thanks anyway.

Hello Simon!

I've never considered the insulation value of model kits. Might be something worthwhile there.

It seems to work best with multiple layers, although there's some debate on the subject. We also have rolls of synthetic material up there, but that just looks like the Texas Ewok Massacre.
