Hello everyone, and thanks to admin for accepting me.

As the title says I'm a real greenhorn doing my first ever model.

I wanted something nice and easy to start off with and chose Tamiyas M4 Sherman (early production). I've been reading up on forums and watching a few youtubes and concluded Tamiya models go together pretty easily. I also chose this as it can be done with no camo which I thought I'd leave til I have a bit of practice with the new airbrush.

I've come to a point where I need some advise on finishes, and maybe some other stuff, whereabouts would I post to ask such questions,

Cheers everyone!

Thank you one and all for the welcome,

As a total beginner I looked into quite a few forums before choosing this one to join, it's simply miles ahead of the others.

Cheers
