o7 howdy all from Glasgow Scotland.

[Skullfish]

Just a hello to all here and thanks for a place to come and hang.

To All intents and purposes I am a complete novice. Not attempted to build anything in 20 odd years but what the hell.
A week ago I found myself walking out of my nearest model shop, Jamiesons models in Glasgow, the proud owner of an Italeria 1:24 Willy's jeep, various paints and a brand new craft knife. It seemed like a good idea at the time, I only fleetingly considered my mental well being. Half way home I suddenly acquired the Airfix 1:72 D-Day Air Assault, the one with the Hawker Typhoon. Yet again my sanity was wondered at. Fast forward to today and there are 5 kits on the shelf awaiting my tender ministrations with only part of the phoon built so far.
Is this how it started for all of you?

Common story around here. I was on a 25 year long break and decided I wanted to build a favorite from World of Tanks. I ordered it and while I waited for it to be delivered I went to a hobby store to get glue and paint. I walked out with glue, paint and 2 more models. Realized I needed sprue cutters and went back, leaving with the cutters and 2 more kits. About then I realized using spray-cans for the base coat was going to get expensive and an airbrush made sense...

Yes! This is how it starts, and there is no cure known to man!!
