New to this side of model building
Posted by Bowtiebuilder on Monday, June 27, 2011 8:57 PM

Hello all,

I've been a member of the Scale Auto Magazine/Forum since 2009 and I felt I could learn lots more by joining here as well. My last endeavor with building a model other than a vehicle was an A-10 Warthog, F15 Eagle and an F18 Hornet when I was 13-14 yrs old. 

Although I don't frequently hang out on the forums I'm sure everyone here is just as welcoming and polite as the Auto forum members are. I look forward to being a part of a great community with everyone here.

Welcome aboard, i am sure you will enjoy it here and will be able to pass on what you have learned as well as help others.

I think we are a polite and helpful bunch. We have our moments now and again, as well as a few odd balls. But it all adds to the flavour.

Ah yes, humor! I love it already. I am quite busy with college classes as of late, what with 2 research papers due in July I am knee-deep in research.  Geeked

I do appreciate the warm welcome from you all and as soon as I start slinging glue and laying down paint once again, I will certainly share my progress with everyone here.

BTW, there are some FANTASTIC works of art in the galery. Very inspiring.

Don't start makeing excuses just yet. Save them for when you really need them.Wink

And you don't have to be mad to be on here, but it sure does help.

Again, welcome aboard.
