Newbie, here!

Posted by Recondo on Wednesday, February 1, 2017 8:28 PM

Hello, I have just joined with a new account! I loved building models as a kid and have found that I still do many years later. My favorites are WWII aircraft. Currently, my first new project is the Revell 1/48 PT17 Stearman. Great kit and that is how I found this site. Unfortunately, my Kungfu is not as good as alot of you guys! The detailing I have seen in some pictures is unreal. Look forward to discussing techniques and hopefully learning new skills!!

Welcome to the Forums Recondo! Glad to have you aboard!

You've come to the right place. The members here are very knowledgeable and ready to help out with any questions/problems that you might have.

I've been building models for 70 of my 76 years and WWI & WWII aircraft are my favorites with sailing ships a close 2nd as you can see by my avatar. I've learned a lot from the members here and continue to learn something new all the time. Sooooooooo, sit back and enjoy the hobby.

Welcome indeed! Welcome Sign

There is NO such thing as a dumb question here! No matter how long you've been at this wonderful hobby, you're always learning and trying new things. I've been at it for about 40 years now and I'm still learning wonderful things here from the FSM forum. I think you'll find that you will not find a friendlier nor more supportive group than the folks here on this forum.

Ask anything and everything and, best of all, show us your work! Propeller
