Hi everyone,
My name is Stephen, and wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I am a retired System Administrator and figured if I want to take on this hobby, I better do it now while I can still see what I'm doing.
Hope to soak up as much knowledge as I can here to learn new painting techniques, weathering\distressing and any other skills I can, and....maybe make a few friends along the way. Its been 40+ years since I put together a model, and a LOT has changed since then, so I have a lot of catching up to do.
I will be using mainly acrylics, and occasionly may use enamels\laquers also. Will depend on the need. I have mostly Vallejo MC and MA paint as well as some Tamiya and old schools Testors enamel. I enjoyed brushing mainly, but I also have an Iwata Eclipse HP CS airbrush I will use as well. Want to "step up my game" so to speak.
Some of my hobbies include RC Cars\Trucks. Flew RC planes earlier on, but I stick to 4 wheels now. Am also an Amateur "ham" Radio operator (close to 35 years), and I'm an avid PC gamer. So I have a lot to keep me busy in my retirement years.
See yall...
