                        I've recently become interested in modeling again after many years away from it. Life, ya know. I'm basically starting fresh, new models and techniques. Reading and watching videos on how to build aircraft and I've gleaned a lot from this wonderful site. Just wanted to introduce myself and I look forward to everyone's feedback and help where you can. 

                        On the bench:

                        A lot !! And I mean A LOT!!

                                                 14 / 5 / 2  

                                                      Tongue Tied

                        Welcome to the forums!

                        The nice thing about building models now compared to 30 years ago, is the wealth of information that is only a click away!

                        I’ll second Bruce – I just returned to the hobby for 25 years or so, and it makes such a huge difference to have so much information so easily available. Welcome to the forum, and welcome back to modeling!

                        Welcome. Folks are more than happy to help and answer questions. In the past 30 years, much has changed. High tech paints, kits, tools, etc. All sorts of aftermarket products as well. So...Enjoy!
