Hi world, I'm a man 51 yrs of age. Living in Holland. In 1974 I was in command of a M109 (the short barreld version) Now I want to rebuild it just like it was in those days. At the moment I have the following(unbuild kits: Italeri 235(the original shrt brrld), 246(sth barrel also incluided) and the Aurora model.
I'm looking for general building and detailling tips and especially photographs, drawings, manuals etc. I do have some nice pics made at that time if you're interested notify me.

Hi! My name is Daniel Ortiz, I'm 40 yrs old and returning to the hobby after a long hiatus (wife, work, kids!). I started modelling when I was 10, and quit when I was 22 to serve in the Air Force. I model WWII aircraft. I did 1/72nd scale in my teens, but now I work on 1/48th scale. I'm very partial to twin engines. My favorite subject is the P38. I am currently working on a collection of variants of the plane. Next in line will be a collection of De Havilland Mosquitoes. I will like to hear from any modelers, any age. Keep on building!
