Returning to Modeling
Posted by Slappy on Thursday, June 4, 2015 4:52 PM

Hello All, 

I am returning to scale modeling after a 20+ year absence. I am a lifelong aviation nerd and I plan on building mostly aviation subjects. I have built a few cars, ships, and armor kits in the past, and I'm sure I will try some more as I go along. I am currently setting up shop to get things going and have started a 1/48 scale Kingfisher to get some practice. I am really looking forward to building again and so far I have learned a lot from reading the forum. I am sure I will learn much more from all of you. 

Cheers, 

Bryan

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Thanks guys. Really having a great time with my first build in years. I'm trying some new tools and techniques that seem to be working out well. I hope to improve my painting and finishing skills as well. Thanks again.

Like you, I recently returned after a 20 year pause.  It's nice to rediscover the love of the hobby.  Welcome aboard!

Most modelers have taken long breaks from modeling at some point in there lives, many here can relate. Myself included.
