On and off.. On again.
Posted by Ceezdup on Tuesday, January 24, 2017 8:39 AM

Just wanted to say welcome to everyone who are reading my introduction post! Hailing from sunny Florida, I recently decided I wanted to get back into afv modeling. I have been on and off modeling since I was a kid, but never really spent the time on perfecting any skills. Now closing in on my 40s I would like to get back into the hobby and hoping I still have time to be somewhat profficent at it. 

I've pulled out some stuff from storage but seem to be missing a few tools here and there. I have no paints whatsoever but atleast I have 2 things that I don't need to worry about. (Iwata smart jet pro & iwata Revolution SAR)

I just ordered a (Tamiya Sherman Easy Eight) from amazon and can't wait to get started.

Looks like the biggest change for me since the last time I modelled is the amount of information on youtube/internet.

As things have changed over the years, I will definitely be coming back asking questions about new glues, tools, etc.

Thanks all and goodluck with all your builds!

Welcome aboard,can't go wrong with that kit,a good one to jump in wits. Just as long as it isn't the Tamiya/Tasca rebox,which is a great kit but more detailed and complex.

Welcome to the Forums! Glad to have you aboard!

You've come to the right place. The members here are very knowledgeable and are ready to help with any questions/problems that you might have. There's no such thing as a dumb question. Just pick the section of the forums that you're building in, Aircraft, Armor, etc. and ask away. Don't get discouraged if it takes a while for an answer as time zones and work schedules have a way of slowing them down. 

Good luck and enjoy.
