Hi all:
I have recently become interested in modeling again after many years of particpating in other interests (like kids). I have built many models over the years, mostly military kits, though none which I have any longer. I became interested again after one of my kids brought home a Spitfire kit as an assignment for a JRROTC project. I thought he did a real nice job on the kit taking into account it was his first one and given the lack of decent tools we have.
Probably like many of you I am fascinated with the detail of the models and dioramas I have seen in FSM. I would like to progress to building at that level. I have many questions to ask and would appreciate knowing of any other sources of information (like clubs or events) in my area.
I particularly like the armor kits and am currently building a Tamiya M8 Greyhound. Most of the kits I built previously I have given to my kids or when I was a kid myself I used to take my models to combat. I was never much interested in the details back then!
I have not looked but probably the best help I could get is where to find a basic tool list and "must haves" for modeling.
