Hello

[Funnelweb]

Hi Guys,

I'm a complete newbie to the modelling thing but this looks like a friendly kind of place to pick up some hints and tips. Well I have built kits before but it was about 40 years ago and I seem to remember ending up with as many parts stuck in my hair as stuck to each other. I was looking for something to pass the time that was a bit more involved than watching TV or surfing the net and for some reason the idea of building models popped into my head. So I did a bit of reading and have bought an Italeri 1/48 P51 and some Vallejo paint and am just starting out. I'm hoping not to get as many bits stuck in my hair this time around if only because I haven't got as much hair these days

Cheers
Graham
