Hi FSM forum
I am a lifetime modeler and lurker. From my new member profile:
Retiree finally getting around to some modeling projects that I collected kits for throughout my busy career.
Last prolific kit modeling period was my teens. My friends and I built WWII 1/72 aircraft for "run around" wargaming.
Got into N scale railroading in my 30's and built several layouts. Switched aircraft interest to 1/144 in my '40's to have an airport train layout, which I completed in my '50's.
My retirement modeling has been focused on subjects where I can display planes and trains together in a model train (layout) diorama. The planes have only been pre-built or pre-painted so far.
I just completed a fairly significant scratchbuild of paratroopers being dropped from C-47's with their chutes in various stages of opening. I made two YouTube videos of it. I will post something soon in dioramas or scratchbuilding.
Welcome to the Forums! Glad to have you with us.
Also a lifetime modeler. Started building in 1946 (6 years old) and never stopped. Build whatever strikes my fancy at the time and my wallet says OK. Favorites are WWI & WWII planes followed by sailing ships as you can see by my avatar.

The bigger the government, the smaller the citizen.
onetruescaleThanks, Bish I like your collection of model build cards.
You mean the Group Build badges, ye, i am a bit addicted to doing GB's, but they are good fun.
I lost my group build badges in the Photobucket fiasco, and the originals were on an old hard drive. The one I really was proud of, the one I liked the most, was my Monogram Mafia badge.
