                        We build replicas of weapons, we play with sharp objects, we smell exotic fumes and it's all legal. Is this a great hobby or what?

                        Many of us have done the start/stop/start thing. Glad you've started again. It's a great way to relax and express yourself. Welcome to the group!

                        Welcome to the forums Kenny (and back to modeling)

                        Glad to have a born again modeler join the ranks here.

                        Do you model certain subjects or anything that strikes your interest?

                        Hello everyone! My name is Kenny and i am from Queens New York City. I have just returned to modeling form a long break. I started maodeling by watching my Dad and took after his intrest of WW II modeling. Unfortunately I broke away from modeling in my teens then joined the ARMY and lost alot of quality time to model. But now I have re-found the thing that I enjoyed most doing with my time... Modeling! I have been away for awhile so I am hoping to learn new things from all of you and from Fine Scale itself. Thanks for your time all and hope to meet some new modelers in the future.
