Hello from Baltimore

Posted by Pineapple on Tuesday, March 26, 2019 6:43 PM

Hi everyone!

I used to build plastic models as a kid with a little help from my dad. I know I put together an F-15 and botched an A-10, and started a few others that never got finished.

20+ years later I'm getting back into the hobby. I have some cheap car models I won on ebay for practice, and then some WW2 planes to try once I shake the rust off.

I also paint miniatures for roleplaying games, which is part of what pushed me to start modeling again.

Excited to be here!

Welcome aboard! Big Smile

Raised in the Midwest...but I've lived in Towson since 1983. Good to have another 'Hon' along for the ride. It's a very friendly group here. Dive in, and enjoy! Look forward to seeing examples of your work.

Welcome aboard, Pineapple. I grew up in Baltimore. I moved up to Harford County about 30 years ago though. Be careful down there. It's not the safest place in Maryland.

Welcome to the Forums Pineapple! Glad to have you aboard.

I've been building models since 1946 which is 72 of my 78 years. Loved every minute of it, well, there was that time back in...................

I build whatever strikes my fancy at the time and my wallet says OK. Wink My favorites are WWI and WWII planes followed by sailing ships as you can see from my avatar.

You've come to the right place. The members are very knowledgeable and are ready to help with any questions/problems that you might have. They don't criticize, they help.

Enjoy!
