To let you in on a few of the Group Builds going on, there is a Battle of the Bulge Build going on now (any Bulge Subject) and a Tiger Build starting in a couple weeks (Tamiya 1/35th). Next year there is an Elefant/Ferdinand Build and at the end of January is a two day Build a 1/35th model in 48 hours build going on. You can sign up for any or all in their respective threads (The Bulge build is in the "Group Builds" folder at the top of the Armor page. The rest are in the main armor page)

Welcome from a quasi-newbie (returning to the hobby after a 20 some-odd year hiatus). I've been a member here since the spring, but only recently have I been actively scanning these boards. I must say that you've come to the right place for info, advice and support. Pete

Welcome John. It's always great to see new folks popping into the forums, and especially younger folks who have found an interest in this wonderful hobby. Look forward to seeing some of your work and most likely learning from it. Thats one of the great things about our/your forum, we learn from each other. Semper Fi, mike

Sign - Welcome [#welcome] This is a great forum. The folks here are really helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. There isn't a question on armour that can't be answered by someone.
