Hey,
Glad to meet all of you folks out there. I hope this setup continues for quite some time as I believe we've needed a place like this for a while. I know there are other newsgroups out there but I think this one is going to be great.
First off let me introduce myself, My name is Tracy Weber,
I live in Kentucky, and I've been modelling for 38 years. Jeez that's a while[:0].
My first model kit was a Monogram F6F Hellcat, stuck together with Testor's tube glue in one afternoon and I was hooked. I haven't been very far away from modelling since then. My wife is quite tolerant of my plastic addiction and sometimes has been known to set me up with a fix.
I build just about anything, well let me restate that last phrase, I buy just about any type of kit but I build mostly Aircraft and Tanks.
I do have cars, ships, vinyl and resin figures scifi and a few gundam kits also, oh and a Funimation Super Saiyan Vegeta too so I guess I'm well and truly into plastic.
I guess my skill level would be variable dependant upon what genre I'm working in but overall I guess I'd say I'm a fair builder
Sorry for the long post but back when I was a youngin' it was near impossible to find folks who were really into modelling now i guess this could be the beginning of a modelling resurgance I hope so things are looking pretty grim it seems for the folks just starting out.
Thanks for putting up with my rattling on.
Tracy
