Hi to everybody, my name is Sergio, a retired engineer, living in Milano, north of Italy.
I started to enjoy modelling many, many years ago...50 years ago, more or less.
The long adventure started when my father presented me one of those Airfix cheap kits, a sparkle started in that moment and it is still shining; for many years, at the beginning, I was involved in plastic kits assempling, later I enjoied the 54 mm miniatures painting and collecting and finally, in the last 20 years or so, I am concentrated on RC electric boats scratch building.
Recently i tried the RC off road cars but, I must admit, that they do not fulfill my interests...and here I am back to my boats.
At the present I am going on two projects : PT109 and, for the first time, I am trying a kit: the fantail launch by Midwest and a new power source: the steam...I am interested to develop this new experience.
I guess that the above may be enough to introduce myself, i'll be pleased to share activities, experiences, opinions with you all.
Few pics about my modelling activities
