I am new to this site but have been reading the magazine for years. Back in August I attended the convention in Virginia Beach and was simply blown away at the talent displayed there. Made me feel that I had along way to go as a model builder. I have been building off and on since I was a kid, but now at 34 I am really getting into it and paying more attention to detail and things like that. I build mostly aircraft and the occasionly piece of armor.
The areas I struggle with the most are weathering to make them look more realistic and making those darn decals look painted on and not stick out like a sore thumb.
I am really enjoying this site and look forward to conversing with you all in the future.
