                        I brought the pieces of my current project with me to toy with and I showed them to a friend I had breakfast with. She wasn't just impressed. She became fascinated. I sent her links to the forum, model expo, squadron, and a couple of the kit companies to take a look. Now what?? As a modeling missionary I've had a conversion!!! I'm now scared. I guess it's like AA eventually in your journey you sponsor someone else.

                        Sounds more like a missionary than an AA attendee. Come on admit it, you were looking for some local to lead into our crazy little world.Evil [}:)]Shock [:O]Tongue [:P]Big Smile [:D]

                        don't know V. I had my little tackle box of figure parts and she looked in and was curious. I explained at little and I had my shep paine dio book and was showing her some pics then she realized they were models and not real thing and got all excited was lookin at everything the water landing of the devastator really got her and it went from there. I'm still in shock I'm used to the over grown tomboy look.

                        Nothing wrong with getting someone to join the crowd. Somehow I turned my wife on to building, now if I could only get her to finish the P-38.

                        So when are you going to get her logged on here?
                        That will either scare her away permanently or prove your skills as a missionary!

                        What was that poor guys name? I know he joined about the same time as me and his name began with a "J".
                        Prehaps he rejoined under a pseudonym ?
                        I would have.
