Title: Hello from Southwell!
Post by: Oscarthehound on 30 July 2018, 01:08:59 PM
Hello Forum Members from the wilds of Nottinghamshire.

First poster- but hoping to get my painting entries up in a bit!

My Pendraken pleasure- tanks and vehicles...

Hello from a former Nottingham resident (Uni  1971-74). Hope you enjoy it on the forum. I too enjoy vehicles, mainly horse drawn or steam powered, but I do have some WWI tanks and planes.

Welcome to the forum, Mr. Hound. If Centurions are included among your tanks, a certain someone will soon confess his man crush on you. I do mostly musket and pike, smelly, clanky things tanks.  :P

Good Afternoon Mr Hound

Welcome to the forum.  I like tanks too, but given your location should you not have an avid interest of Bow armed troops?

Hi Oscar.

Welcome to the forum

Is the 'Bamboo Garden' still operating in Southwell ?
Used to go there for a take-away once a week/fortnight.
Mrs Techno (Von) met one of her heroes (Red Rum) at the racecourse there MANY years go.

Cheers - Phil. (Who lived in Caunton, about 5 miles from Southwell.)

Smelly, clanky things tanks.   
As, I would suggest, are most Pike and Musket armies. :P


About tanks. What types are we talking?

Oscart - He-Hound.   :-\   Has a kind of heroic ring to it. 

Anyhoo, a warm welcome from me, too.   :-h

Considering where our new friend comes from, would have thought Code BRV64 (formerly BR135).  ;)

Well well well.... what a welcome!
Yep so whilst I am in Robin Hood country alas my modelling interest is strictly for vehicles (tanks mainly- WW1/ interwar/ WW2/ post war- the lot!- to about 1970)... and not long bow men. Plus as a novice modeller my skills at soldiers are still at the infant stage. At least with a tank I can cover up my heavy handedness with a splodge of "weathering" :D

You make a fair point but with all things being equal - my boys at least have feathers.
