Another Lurker, de-lurking...

[badmoon]

I've been lurking here for a while now and thought it about time to de-lurk and introduce myself to everyone....

My main area of interest here, is the card modelling section. I've been obsessively making things for most of my life and until recently ran my own IT and Multimedia company, making virtual models and alternate digital realities. Sadly ill health caused me to have to give up my business, leaving me with more time to make things.....

Being a keen wargamer I recently decided to make some 1/144th scale WW1 aircraft. The first 2 models were scaled down Fiddlers Green models whilst the Rumpler C4 is my first attempt at scratchbuilding a 1/144th aircraft using 3D software (Truespace and UV-Mapper Pro).

Thanks for the welcome guys :thumb:
I plan on using the models for "HitT" (Hordes in the Trenches, a variant of DBA). I was originally going to use 1/72 scale models but found them to be way too big for the playing area. I decided to use 1/144th scale instead.... only to find that there aren't too many readily available models in this scale. So the only solution is to build from scratch.
