Title: Hi all!
Post by: Lewis on 08 January 2023, 11:04:37 PM
Just a quick message to say hi and thanks for adding me to the forum. Just starting my journey into 10mm ww2. I'd also like to say thanks to the guys at Pendraken after my visit to the shop last week to buy my first mini's and Blitzkrieg Commander rule book, I was made to feel most welcome.
Lewis.

Welcome Lewis.

Pendraken folks are always nice - especially when they are trying to get you addicted.  :)

Welcome, Lewis!

Lots of friendly, knowledgeable and helpful people here so if you wind up with questions feel free to ask.

Answers here are normally detailed, interesting and useful but they do occasionally (by occasionally I mean fairly often) veer off into the esoteric or frankly bizarre. If the latter cases feel free to haul things back on track if you haven't had a satisfactory answer to your question or to join in the mayhem if you have learned all you needed to. :)

Hi Leon, yeah had to visit on friday too....I'm definitely hooked!Nearly painted all my vehicles and the 88, you were right, painting these guys are really not too time consuming. Was trying to upload a few pictures in the painting/modelling section but apparently the files are too big. I'm a bit of a biff when it comes to technology.

Excellent, I've been over in Wales for the weekend dropping the eldest off at Uni, but hopefully the staff looked after you while I was gone!

For the photos, the easiest way is to host them somewhere like a Photobucket, Flickr, Imgur, etc. or a blog if you have one?  Then you can link them from there to here.

Welcome Lewis.

Slightly jealous you are close enough to Pendraken to visit twice in a week. But on the other hand might not be a bad thing I'm on the other side of the country!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!! :D Yeah, Fred, I think I may end up being quite a regular and may need to do more overtime at work  haha!
And yeah they sure did Leon, cracking place! I'll have a look into those options and get some uploading done. Cheers again everyone!

Welcome Lewis.

WWII you say? 88mm you say? So I'm guessing Germans, but which Germans?

Photos would be appreciated.
