Hello Everyone.
Posted by Matt Stewart on Tuesday, March 28, 2017 8:45 PM

Hello everyone. My name is Matt, I'm from right outside of Atlanta, GA. I've lurked on this forum for advice in the past and finally decided to create an account. Until this point I've always built 1/24 scale cars but I'm thinking about trying my hand at planes and boats in the future.

My weakest link is getting orange peel in my paint jobs and I've recently acquired an airbrush so I'm in that learning curve as well. I look forward to discussing many things with all of you but more importantly, learning from you all.

Until next time.

Hi, Matt - Welcome to FSM, many areas of interest to modelers of any field. You'll find the airbrush to be a bit tricky to get used to, my first tries were terrible, but as I continued and improved it's now my best and most used tool.

There are many sections for you to explore here, like painting, tools, airbrushing and more, found below the introduction spot you're on. Just scroll down until you find what area interests you.

Wishing you happy modeling.

Patrick

Welcome to the forum, Matt!

What Patrick said.  You'll find more tips and advice than you'll know what to do with.  Check out the painting/airbrushing forum regarding your issues with the airbrush.  If you post the question, do include the make/model of your brush and rig, and details about how you've thinned your paint, the pressure you set, etc, and you'll get good discussion and advice.

I look forward to seeing your builds!

Best regards,

Brad
