Newbie in the room

Hi guys,

Will do the introductions here, just started modelling as that is what is taken up a lot of my husbands time, so decided to join him in the man cave. Have a lot to live up to, as he is quit good at it and publishes his models in a magazine and sells them. What I will beat him at is that he is building military planes and I build cars, he got me a Mustang on eBay and attached was a letter about this forum, so here I am:-) currently working on a Revell Shelby Mustang GT 350 H
Nice to meet you all and great to look around here!

Hey there marijkeb67 and welcome to our site. You are our first lady member and very welcome indeed.

It's nice to know when someone signs up as a result of the fliers I send out with kits.

Thanks Al, had a look around and see I have a lot to learn, shame I am the first lady and I say the lady with a smile on my face, hopefully some more will follow. Received the monogram mustang convertible today, pretty much my dream car, anyway eBay shop saved in favorite sellers as I love the American classics

Welcome to Skid's Place. Be sure and show us some of your work when you can.

Welcome to our corner of the web. You'll find friendly people & lots of good advice here.
My sister lives in Elgin.


Cheers,

Chris

Cool !! another female builder (notice I did not say lady)   

Few and far between, but are the best builders around. My wife has built a few as well, but kids seem to get in the way...  

Pull up a chair and make yourself at home !

Welcome, Missy. (Old men tend to call young chicks, Missy)
  

Welcome aboard!

Regards,
Mark

Thanks for the warm welcome and will start taking some pictures and might even post them  

Welcome to the group!

You will like it, as we are a good, fun loving batch of guys. There are many great modelers here, and you will be able to learn a lot, and pick up a ton of tips and techniques.

Welcome! :)

Welcome from Ireland, nice to have a girl on board, don't take offence, all ladies are still girls over here. LOL

Can you speak any Scot's Gaelic, I believe it's a hell of a lot closer to Irish than Welsh is (sorry Andy..!)

Hello from me too,
and looking forward to any photographs of your models!

Hey Dublin boy, I am from Holland, just live in Scotland as my hubby is from here, so you know where the spelling mistakes come from lol

I'm afraid I've only ever been to Amsterdam a few times, never saw more of Holland.

As for spelling mistakes, we can't spell anything properly anyway, the glue and paint has that effect. LOL

Welcome aboard      Can't wait to see some pictures of your Mustang   

If you don't mind me asking----What is your name ?? Just so we could use that or just use your username.

Hi the name is Marijke but don't  expect anything spectacular, am still at the stage that I am extremely pleased to get a model together 

Hi Mrs M,

Welcome to the forum and hope you enjoy your stay, looking forward to seeing the Mustang...

Andy...

DB, you do know that Welsh is the true Celtic language don't you, Irish & Scottish Gaelic are just spin off's...

Bíodh an lá go deas maité...  

Andy, you have the drop on us, a huge amount of Welshmen can speak Welsh, you have pride in your language, over here you'd have to go to a Gealtact area to hear fluent Irish, we all have a cupla focail but I can't speak it properly, even though I have an A level in it!

I believe that Scots Gaelic and Irish speakers can understand each other, but Welsh is a bit mad! LOL

I thank you for joining and wish you well in this new year. We hope you'll take to building. I always believed women have greater talents in patience and working with very small scale projects. Best of luck and many thanx!

Welcome aboard. Having a lady on the forum should keep these guys in line.   

Hah!!   

Lady modellers are not as rare as you think.
I know a guy who is into model railways and has a very large loft layout.
He deals with the track and rolling stock - while his wife does the scenery and buildings.
Her detail work puts mine to shame.
