                        Hi all,

                        I'm returning to modeling after about a 20 year hiatus. Wow, things have changed since I last built anything. New techniques to try, new products to use, and of course the Internet. :-)

                        I was never a really good modeler and kept to what I call 'factory' builds (no weathering, straight off the assembly line), but I'm trying branch out and push my skills a bit.

                        I'm currently doing a diorama (my first ever) using Pegasus' Alpha Centauri UFO and Tamiya's Mechanic Rally set. Yeah, I stole the idea from someone online but it was just too  funny and I couldn't resist.

                        Anyway, glad to find these forums as I'm sure I'll be looking for guidance and stealing ideas for my own builds.

                        Welcome, Ken!  

                        I understand the "factory floor" look thing, and still stick to it much of the time myself, but experimenting with weathering, damage, etc can be fun.
