Hello from Greece


Recommended Posts

My name is Dimitris and I' m from Athens, Greece.


 I 've started a model on my early 20's (now I'm 52), no internet or any kind of help back then. Artesania Latina's Fulgaro. Got stuck and left it on its box.

 

Now my girlfriend start making small rooms, hand made from ground up, with any materials she could find. With pianos and candle lights and chairs and everything. The outcome is great! And then I remember my old Fulgaro, still in storage. Got her from my storage and gave it a go in order to finish her up.

 

Trying to find some kind of help and examples of Fulgaro's construction found this site. I ve made my mind that it's not possible to finisher up, at this time. I ve lost some pieces and I don't know what to do next. But I m willing to do it. So I'm starting a new boat of Artesania Latina, in order, when finished, to have the knowledge to finish Fulgaro.

 

Meantime all the knowledge found here is inspirational and made me to want post my build and share with you my stories.

 

Nice to be here then.

 

Thank you,

Dimitris

Γεια σας Δημήτρη και καλώς ήλθατε στην ομάδα.

Welcome to MSW from the UK. This is a great place to find advice and answers.

Every problem in building a kit has already been solved by someone somewhere so I am sure there is a solution to your missing pieces. The best way is probably to start a build log so we can 'look over your shoulder'.

 

Regards,

Bruce

Welcome to MSW, Dimitris.   As Bruce said, the best way is to open a build log on the new model.  And when you feel ready to try Fulgaro again, do a log for that one.
