Greetings from Michigan, USA

Post by GPModelbuilder1952 »

Sending best wishes for the New Year from the wintry mid-west USA. Getting back in to model building after about 30 years...especially keen on WWII aircraft, Formula 1 race cars. Would like to try some armor. Considering tackling the USS Constitution Revell kit. My dad built this model about 55 years ago and I can still remember many evenings watching him patiently rigging the lines, etc.

Completed my first build in late December: Revell 1/48 P-47 Thunderbolt. Now nearing completion of second build: Revell 1/48 P-51D Mustang...the version with the nasty nose decals...ugh! Third build will be my first Airfix kit: 1/48 Hawker Hurricane. Have some Tamiya kits in my growing stash.

Learning a lot by watching you more talented gents who post your builds and kit reviews. Please keep them coming.

I'll post some photos of my first efforts soon. Mostly happy with the outcomes so far. Learning to use the airbrush, apply washes, chipping, etc. Great fun!

Cheers! :cheers2: Enjoy Superbowl Weekend!
