Introduce yourself

 I must be the oldest new kid on the block. I am 67 and just getting back to modeling that I used to do....maybe 60 years ago. This is part therapy and also a lot of fun. The therapy part is that I have Parkinsons Disease and I am trying to retain my fine motor skills by making myself handle these small parts, attaching them and painting them. I have a lot to learn and FSM provides a wealth of information which really helps. I have found that it is a fact that one cannot enter a hobby store without leaving with something you (think) you really need. The product you all produce is really fantastic. I hope to someday attain a level close to yours. So it's practice, practice, practice. I have just been given my biggest challenge to date. My neighbor gave me a kit he had in storage for several years. It's a 1:12 scale Lamborghini Countach LP 500S made by Otaki. Apparentlly Otaki is out of business. I am looking forward to building this model, but have a small problem. The instruction book is entirely written in Japanese. Anybody know where I can get an English language version? I think I can muddle through by following the diagrams. The owner of a local hobby store was able to determine what paints I needed which I now have. There are a large number of parts in this kit. Should I paint all the parts prior to assembly? That is after I wash them and prime them. Any advice is greatfully accepted. Thanks, 806L
