Hello everyone!

Post by brotchen1 »

Hello to all my new fellow modellers! I am getting back into the hobby after 20 or so years when i used to dabble as a kid. The only ones i ever finished then were a Testors DeTomaso Pantera, and a 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A lol, with very little in the way of info as to tips and tricks and no knowledge of better modelling products than the Testors stuff. Absolutely hated that plastic cement lol. So life and growing up got in the way as it tends to do. Got the bug almost a year ago when i started thinking about jumping in again, and poked around YouTube for insparation. Found a couple people to check out,and was fascinated by a Japanese fellow who did a small Gunpla kit. I figured that would be a good way to start, and now I'm all in as they say, with a whole set up and have been happily building ever since.
