Hey ya!
Sorry for the delayed response, we finally finished our house and are in the process of moving out of our old shack, lol.
I have always been interested in building anything I could get my hands on. Alot of times when I was a kid it was whatever was on the clearance rack at TG&Y. Didnt really matter I just needed something to dry brush :)
Currently I am kind of doing the same thing, picking things up at the LHS on the clearance bin, missing parts of course. First couple have been planes.
I plan on focusing on armor once I get back into the swing of things. Also trying to get a stock of paints and materials built up. All my testors enamels are dried out, I do have a few Tamiya paints that survived the 20 year shelf stay.
Current model in the paint booth is a Tamiya Panther, the old one.
