Hello all!

[barryf1fan]

Have browsed the forum in the past, and was on here today looking at various users builds and decided to join up with this forum.

Have done a bit of model building in the past, and as a kid usually did the Snap-Tite kits just so we had some targets with our pellet guns and firecrackers. But, that's what kids do, right?

Recently (as in about 3 weeks ago) my 21 y.o. got his own place, and while sad to see the oldest leave the "nest", my wife said I could have his room for my R/C, Sim rig, and model stuff!!

So, I have about a dozen models put back that I have collected over the years (mostly Tamiya racing cars/bikes) and am looking to start on them. I have an airbrush that I will need to build a spray booth for (all my models have been rattle canned) and get my supplies built back up. Looking forward to getting back into this hobby as it is very therapeutic for me.

Here are a couple of my models that have survived a couple of moves (a couple didn't ). The Focus WRC I finished up about a year ago and just didn't have the right supplies to do the decals properly (have another kit in a box ready to do it right).







Have several Tamiya bikes put back to do, as well as F1's and other race cars... looking forward to learning from the community.
Also, please let me know if I did the images wrong - I couldn't find anywhere on shutterfly how to resize the image to the 600x600 limit.

Thanks,
Barry

Welcome.
I'd love to see those Tamiya bikes, especially build photos. I was impressed by them myself in my younger days when they were too pricey for my pocket. Happy modelling.
