Greetings
Posted by Steelehead on Wednesday, March 5, 2014 11:19 AM

As a youngster i was a modeling enthusiast building WWII  planes and ships.  That was over 40 years ago.   At the end of January, I went down to Arizona to visit my mother and while taking her out shopping I went to kill some time in a hobby store.  An F-4U grabbed my attention.  Picking up the box I noted the price being way more than what I payed as a kid. I bought it anyway and built it during my stay there.  Since that time I have caught the bug and built three more planes, just finishing up an Eduard Hellcat.. I had forgotten how enjoyable and rewarding this hobby can be.

I came across this forum looking for opinions and reviews and found amazing talent here and a wealth of information.  I hope to be able to contribute.
