Hello from Dallas TX. Its hot, was hot yesterday and will be hot tomorrow. After 40+ yrs., I got the bug again. This time I started with 1:48 WWII single and two engine aircraft. Canned spray paint and paint brush was all I knew. It did not take long to figure out it's a whole new world out there. All the painting and weathering techniques was and still is to some extent very new to me. I just found future not to long ago which has been used on my current build, a PGY-5A, as a Blackcat. As soon as I can figure out how to download them with details I will send them on. Like I said I'm a newbie so any tips, suggestions and constructive critiscm will always be wanted.

I was born in Norfolk. The day I was born my dad was approximately 600 miles off the Florida coast steaming north after a tour in Korea. I was about 3 days old when his ship finally settled pierside.
