I guess I'm the new kid (67y/o) on the block, I joined because I have this uncontrollable urge to recapture my youth with models! I've been buying old styrene at outrageous prices. But I enjoyed building them once, why not again? Warships were my passion, some age of sail, really old cars, aircraft & rockets. I also scratchbuilt a Santa Maria and several small runabouts. None of which survive (my mother was of the 'every-other-generation" that doesn't save anything). I never throw anything away and my house looks like it. Enough rambling, see ya 'round the block!
