hello,
I am a 16 year old modeler who has been modeling for a couple of years. I need some help and/or tips on making my model look better. I read the magazine, but I do not understand all the terms used.(washing, dry brushing, ect…) I am looking to improve my modeling skills.
Welcome to FSM Fred. You’ve come to the right place to pick up on some of those tips. First off head to the individual forums that meet your tastes. Lots to choose from A/C to Armour to Cars, Search for the technique you want to know about and if you’re not having any luck … ask.
Enjoy the forums.
Welcome to the FSM forums. Shermanfreak is right. This a very good place to get very good tips on improving your skills in modeling. Good luck and see you around.

Like the others have said, pick a forum and ask away. Each subject (Armor, Aircraft and so on) has their own techniques and tricks to help you make a better looking model.
I would like to think everybody who replied to my fourm. I am going to start viewing the other fourms today. My intersets are in classic cars and airplanes. I already have so many models in my room that i have trouble finding space for new ones. I am finishing up the Wright Flyer(on the cover of the mag) and I have a '57 corvette I am going to start.
great to have another modeler of the younger generation!!! i’m 16 myself. Welcome to FSM
welcome mate…join the club.
Welcome to FSM Fred. You sound about like I was when I stumbled upon this great place. I have learned more than I ever thought possible about modeling since. I recently did a 57 vette my self, pretty fun little build hope I can help you out with it.
