Hi everybody, my name is Henrique Bertão. I’m 44 years old, from Portugal and I’ve been working on models since I was about 10. I first got involved with a small, simple models that involved a planes or tanks or figures of 1:72 scales. I left the hobby for high school and University and come back on my early 30’s. Now I continue to be interested in planes, tanks and ancient boats of several scales. One of my interests is in rebuilding broken kits so that they can “live” again. However sometimes is difficult to get parts, instruction sheets and decals but I manage to get help from friends, fellow modelers and even manufactures. And I like the chalange…
Glad you decided to join, as you can see this is a good place to learn & meet like minded hobbyists. Sure there are some topics that get side tracked, chaos & good spirited fun. Yet the core group are more than willing to assist in any research or model related topic.
Something about modelers from your area of the globe, they seem to bring a different sort of kung-fu to the big brawl. All good as the best technique is no technique, rather a blend of all styles.
