Title: Hello from Belgium
Post by: ovl on June 25, 2015, 03:01:02 pm

Hi everyone,


I'm new on the forum,


I'm member of 2 other forums (a dutch and a french one)
My biggest interest in models are tugboats and lifeboats (working with lights, sounds etc)
but I like models in general


the first kit I made  (started 3 years ago, and as good as finished) is the Happy Hunter,
I changed some colors etc, so I called it Happy Hunter II


I also have a tug : Saint Charles (to be restored)
and a SAR boat : Adolph Bermphol (to be restored)


But I'll start my new  Tamar first  O0 :}
