Greetings, everyone! I've been lurking on these forums the last year or so, but thought I should officially say "Hi."
My name's Jacob, my wife and I live in Boca Raton, FL. I was in the USN from 1990-1994 with VF-211 (a Tomcat outfit) and now I'm a Graphic Designer and Illustrator. Due to an illness about 3 years ago I got back into model-building after a 30-year hiatus, and MAN has the hobby changed.
When I was a young man, it was testors glue, X-Acto knives and cans of Krylon, and in the intervening years the product offerings are through. the. roof. Not complaining, the quality of my models is spectacular (compared to my past work)thanks to that internet-thingy.
I mostly model 1/35 WWII Armor (usually German. Don't know why? Lots of variety I suppose) but have tried expanding my horizons with aircraft (usually 1/72 WWII-era) and some Sci-Fi models (Star Wars, Gundam) and I'm here generally trying to expand my horizons.
So I guess there's that - Howdy!
