                        Hello from Illinois.  I am looking to get back into a great hobby after being out of it for almost 30 years.  I'm sure things have changed quite a bit so I may need some or a lot of advice.

                        Hi, welcome to the forum and back into the hobby. This is deffinatly the place to learn, whether your a novice or an old hand you will pick up lots of good tips and advice. My modelling has improved more in the last 2 years of being on here than it did in the 20 years before.

                        Looking forward to seeing some of your builds.

                        Greetings!

                        The most noticeable change is newer kits have aftermarket items included like PE (photo etch) and better fit & detail. Yet old molds never die, they are re-boxed with new cover art and sold cheaper. Price is a good indicator of the quality inside. Also the internet allows you to review model kits before your purchase.
