Its been quite awhile,probaly 20 years or more. Used to buy all my models at a place called Hobby Caterers.It seemed like Mr magorians magic emporium at the time. Models everywhere, and I wanted them all !
There doesn’t seem to be anyplace like that anymore(i’m still looking though).recently I purchased a couple Diecasts, mostly that Ferrari 156 Sharknose I always wanted as a kid. But something hit me, I said “I can build these, I used to all the time”. I found my Badger 150 airbrush. Funny I can remember lugging that old spare tire from my dads car down celler, and blowing it up with a bicycle pump, everytime I wanted to spray,still brings a smile to my face now.
I found a local hobby shop, I must say I talked to the owner so long I almost forgot I went in there to get a kit. I picked out a Dale Jr #8 car. The owner was great he told me to start simple and practice using the airbrush.I’m still trying to get the workbench ready. Already made myself a cheap spray booth witha fan outside. Just picked up a cheap magnifier, though If you can suggest one that would be great.
Just thought Id say a quick hello, any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.
