MDriskill Posted February 17, 2022 Report Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) Hi, I'm Mike Driskill in Knoxville, TN. Totally embarrassed to admit that after 46 years (!!!) as an IPMS member (no. 7409), I didn't know about these lovely forums! Better late than never I suppose. 😬 Like many of "a certain age," I cut my teeth on Revell, Airfix, Monogram, and pioneering Japanese kits in the '60's. I've been a proud member of the Knoxville Scale Modelers Association (KSMA) chapter since 1975. I entered my first contest in 1977 (yes kids, plastic existed then). I have attended 14 Nats, helped judge at a couple back in the day, and even picked up an occasional trophy there (though it's been a while!). My specialty these days is 1/72 WW2 aircraft. I'm recently retired after 40+ years practicing architecture - if you went to the Chattanooga Nats, you walked though some of my work, lol - the table layouts! Edited February 17, 2022 by MDriskill
Mark Deliduka Posted February 17, 2022 Report Posted February 17, 2022 Welcome Mike! I thought I recognized the name as I did see you at the Chattanooga Nats. You may not remember me but I'm the one who had all that 1/72 scale armor there. I'm glad to see you here and I encourage you to post pics of your incredible work.
ghodges Posted February 18, 2022 Report Posted February 18, 2022 Welcome! Make yourself at home Mike and let us know how we can help you have more FUN! Â Gil
Highlander Posted February 21, 2022 Report Posted February 21, 2022 Was in Knoxville for about a week last Fall ... just for recreation. Beautiful city. Wish I had thought of looking up a modeling club.
