Hi Trev, great forum with loads of advice and encouragement, maybe a little criticism at times but it all helps to become a better modeler. Looking forward to seeing your work.

Welcome to the Herd, Trev! I look forward to seeing your builds. Do you have favorite subjects in 1/72, like armor, or aircraft, etc?

Best regards,
Brad

Did manage to sell a model of a canal for charity for a work colleague which went to the USA but I must be completely honest iam really only an enthusiastic amateur, and that's the truth! anyway glad to hear from you all. cheers Trev

Welcome aboard, my, my you are going to be worth keeping as this work looks good enough to use for mapreading training. John

Yeah, I don't really know what you mean, either. Is it like insulation foam sheeting? I use that for groundwork. You can cut it OK, thought a hot knife works best. It works well as a core for groundwork, over which you can apply putty, spackle, grout, wood putty (my favorite).
