aboard Martin @SnøMotion - Your Cults3D page is allowed in your signature, but if you could shrink those cars down a bit so they fit within the guidelines in the FAQ section, we'll all be happy

 

Thanks, Mike!

 

Sorry, I just went off the size it said in the upload box. I’m on my phone at the moment, but I’ll sort it tomorrow 👍

That could mean I've either not updated the size, or it just looks bigger because there's a line of text above it.  Check the FAQ before you change the pic size.  It's getting late, and my brain's gone to bed without me

No, I'd made my image 150px high instead of 100px because of the text line. I've also reduced the text size so, as far as I can see, I'm under the 150px total now 🤞

Looks good enough to me

Greetings from Uruguay, this is the far south and the middle of winter.

 

After some 40 years I'm taking up the tools and plastic again, I was away but kept reading all these years, mostly about airplanes.

 

So it's back to the furrow.

Good afternoon one and all. Nice to be here. Look forward to reading ALOT and hopefully posting where possible. All the best. Kind regards. Pete.

Hi everybody,

I'm a new one here.

All the best for you in these difficult times.

Good Morning People.

I am a returning member/Browser who used to be on here under the name of dieselweasel. It's been a rough year so far, what with losing three of my family and health issues (which we all suffer from time to time). Just glad to be back and wanting to pick up some tips and techniques.

Bye for now

Jim (aka Dieselweasel).

 

[Mike]

back Jim.

You still are, or was it a derivative or different spelling?  We have a one user one account policy, so if you have more than one, we'll need to merge them.  Let me know if that's the case

[dieselweasel]

Thanks for all your help Mike, I only have the one account, couldn't handle any more.

Good stuff. Thanks for clearing that up

Hi all, extremely mediocre modeller from Aberdeen here. I actually ended up at this site while researching a downed PRU Spitfire pilot and one of the members here had built a model of his Spit. Like a lot of people I got back into model making during lockdown as a way to occupy my free time and destress while teaching from home. I picked up a few Airfix starter kits and watched a lot of YouTube tutorials to learn how to paint them a bit better. Got some decent results with brushes, amassed a stash of kits and got as far as buying a entry level airbrush kit but then life has picked up pace again and I've not built a kit for ages. I figured ending up here was maybe a sign to reactivate my hobby so am looking forward to having a good browse through the threads here for some inspiration and some more tips to develop my skills a bit more.

We don't recognise mediocre here, as previously observed in other threads there are two Golden Rules...

 

1>  Enjoy your hobby no matter how you rate yourself.

2>  See rule 1.

 

If you ever get bored building things with wings, drop in on the vehicles (non-military) section - the inmates are mostly house-trained and the coffee's always on.  😁

Welcome to the family from a more or less longer resident. I’m from the Chicago area of the U.S. in case you're curious.
