Revisiting a favorite past time

Thanks everyone I got a good chuckle from a lot of the comments.  Yes I do think I have more kits than I will ever get to complete but you can never have enough.  Here's a couple pics of some early builds. 

On the agenda is to decide my first build.  Since it's been awhile I'm contemplating  something with  a simple monotone paint scheme ,Russian perhaps. This will give me a chance to try  out some of  Alex Clark's techniques that he describes  in his book Small-Scale Armor Modelling,(good read by the way).  I hope to post the W.I.P in the forum.

Thanks

Holy Jeez!!!! Thats not a stash!!!!!!!!!! This is a Local Hobby Shop!!! What are the store hours??? lol.

Welcome back to the hobby RX7850.

Welcome to the forum.

Sweet looking bench there....

And great shots of the builds.

Well, guess I know what I'm gonna build to shake my rattle cans with.

   Those are some good lookin' builds, and a good lookin' stash and bench ya got there. Welcome aboard, sir! 

Nice-looking models.  At first, I thought your stash was a photo of a hobby store!

Nice work,welcome to the forums,I think most of us have had that hiatus in the middle of our lives,before we got back to modeling

Welcome RX7850! Oh Yeah, you will fit in rather nicely around here. Excellent models, really well done. And as far as your work space and stash go well, I bow to you in reverence.

Welcome to the forum and back to the hobby. Yep, thats some stash, and enough Esci to keep you going. I think i have bought more kits in the 5 years since i got back into it than i did in the 20 years i was building before my break.

Some great builds there.

Now that's a stash!

Yes it is . Guaranteed to rejuvenate 17 yr. old paint.

Is that a Black & Decker jig saw? WHOA!

It's been a while since I first posted.  Since then I set up a make shift work bench,  took an inventory  and  finally got a chance to repair some of the damage my models endured while in storage.  enclosed are some pics.

Here's a pic of the work bench 

Due to the long term storage I thought  my  paints had  passed their expiration  You know, when the pigment  settles at the bottom no matter how much you shake it. Came up with this little bad boy. Worked extremely well.

The stash   Been on a bit of a buying frenzy. Impressed with all the new manufacturers : Dragon, PST, Trumpeter Etc. Still appreciate my Esci thou. Thanks

Welcome RX7850 ,this is a great forum for sharing ideas and pics,lots of both! Shame about the storage damage hope its not too bad and can be easily repaired,looking forward to seeing some pics,cheers Trey

Welcome to the Forums. Lots of great guys and gals on here to help you with questions and/or problems. Only one thing to remember. They like to see lots of photos of your builds.
