Greetings from the SunShineState!
Posted by LeftCoastAngler on Wednesday, April 28, 2010 10:30 AM

'ello all.

My name's Ray.  Been lurkin' here at FineScaleModeler for a couple months now...  Finally broke down and bought a plastic model after a 15+ year hiatus.  I haven't touched a model since I was a teenager...  I'm 35 now!  I've been a TampaBay, FL area native all my life.  

I'm interested in the weathering techniques...  This is something I just haven't done in my few years of experience...  I can remember slappin' models together in a day or two back then...  NOT taking to time to clean edges, and what not...  No use of puttys to hide seams...  ROOKIE, right!

It's all gonna change now..

I'm ready to dedicate some patience and time now adays...  :)

Thanks to all for hearin' me out, and I hope to see ya around in forums...
