So Im from Oklahoma and have been a fan of modeling since I was a kid. I never could build in a manner worthy of this website, let alone paint a model very well but I still enjoyed it.
I stopped model building when I enlisted in the Marines in 03 and now, a decade after I left the service, I find myself yearning to build a model of some of the LAV25s that I called home. I also find that a major probem I have to get over is the level of perfection Ill want to put in to a build simply because I worked in and on them for several years and still know the platform pretty well.
My most recent attempt to get reaquainted with model building was a Revell level 1 Blue Angel F18. It reminded me of how generic some kits can be and why many modelers choose to make some of their own parts.
Im sure Ill dive back here for tip and advise but I figured Id drop a line and make myself known.
