Cool Hello evertbody !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know this is little backwards but here goes.
My name is John I’m 30ish, and a writer living in Mississippi, I mostly build older cars and trucks but I have been building some newer rice burners. I’ve build a few sci-fi space ships, none of which turned out very well, all right they sucked super badly.
I’ve always wanted to build a motorbike but I’ve never found one that looked right along side my other models so I have not build one. If anyone knows what scale for motorbikes will look in scale with a 1:24/1:25 scale cars and trucks I would love to know.
Otherwise I’m always looking for something new to try on my models so I’ll be dropping in as much as I can to keep up with everyone. As some of you may already know I’m currently attempting to work out vertical lift doors on a model and as soon as I do work it out I will be happy to share the information with the rest of you.
I will also share any other tips I can think of with you all.

Hi John
Welcome to the forum from the U.K. - I'm into scratch built ships - my first was an American clipper "Sea Witch" - present model is a 17th cent frigate "HMS Unicorn" but have a fancy for a Mississippi paddle steamer
"Huck Finn and all that" perhaps in the future
Peter
