Glad to be back
Posted by Stephen_Social on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 11:46 AM

Hi guys, it's been a LONG time since I last logged on. (Long enough I don't remember my old username) I got into model building during high school and college pulled me away from the hobby. After a brief period as an avid bass fisherman I realized I needed a winter hobby. (Ice fishing in Ohio isn't my idea of a good time)

My wife and I finally have enough space where I can set up a table and break out the enamel bottles, tweezers, hobby knives, super glue, and styrene again! So here I am.

It's great to be back! GREAT! I hadn't touched a model with any real focus in almost 5 years until last week. I warmed up on a 1/72 scale predator uav kit that made the mistake of getting in my way, and now I'm back up to speed.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone again, and getting my skills back up to par.Big Smile

Welcome Sign I know the feeling. I took a 5 year break a while back and didn't touch the site in all that time. But it was great to get back.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Trust me you don't want to see it! My 4 year old nephew "helped me" put it together and it looks like he did most of the work and I did most of the helping. And I didn't bother decaling it since I was anxious to move on to an old project I've been piecing together for 3 years worth of the hobby.
