Back to modeling after 30 years
Posted by SgtBrown on Friday, December 1, 2006 2:08 PM

Hey all,

     Growing up, I built tons of models, everything from armor, to aircraft, to space stuff.  Then I drifted away after other pursuits.  I have decided to pick the hobby up again after all these years. 

     My main interest is armor, especially German stuff.  The first kit up is a Tamiya 1/48 Tiger I Intial Production (Africa-Corps).  Lots have changed, I remember when tracks were one piece rubber that "snapped together", now I'm dealing with the individual links.

     Looking to learn and have fun, this seems to be the place.

Welcome! Most of us have left the hobby and come back at some point.  There is a large group of German Armor fans here.  You should feel right at home.
