Fat fingers Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Just a quick hello, Have been making models again for about 18 months now, after a break of 35 years! Can't say it was like riding a bike and have made some right cockups! But have plodded on and seem to be getting better. I have no peculiar intrest group, I just make what ever takes my fancy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian T Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Hi Fat Fingers, welcome to the forum. It’s certainly not like riding a bike is it? I found some tremendous changes since my 1960’s Airfix day’s, but mostly for the better. The kits are definitely hugely more detailed and much higher quality. The range of paints (and how to apply them) is mind boggling and there are some many “must have” gadgets to help you along the way. Best Regards Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat fingers Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 You're right Ian, the modelling world has come on leaps and bounds since the 70's, and you can spend a bloody fortune. At least I don't have to nick by mum's nail files anymore! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
