posting again

[dutch]

Hello to you all.
After a long time of no-posting ( because I did modelling things which got wings) I returned to painting and creating historical figures.
I"m retired from my work for 5 years now, and boy...I love it! More time for my hobby and no stress anymore.
I joined a figure-club in the Netherlands ( https://www.modelfiguren.nl ). They sell their own figures in metal.
Quite good quality. I did figure-modelling for a long time. Mostly Airfix collectors series and Airfix Multipose. Also 1/72 scale.. I did my first figure in the 70-ies. British guard from Airfix.
Nowadays I have Historex, Airfix, and metal figures.
My focal-point is the Dutch army.
I have a blog about my model-making. Have a look:
https://dutchuniformsinminiature.blogspot.com
In future I hope to post more of my stuff.

Welcome to the Planet, Paul! Would you also do some subjects from the Dutch Republic in the 18th century, too? In any case, I look forward to seeing more of your work. Including your airplanes!

Prost!
