Back in the hobby after 15 yr postponement

General Discussion Welcome - Introduce Yourself

What a great resource! Hope to hear from fellow plastic addicts who wish they had time to build all the kits they have collected! After 15 yrs of waiting on all my kids to grow up and quit wrecking my models, it is safe to return to the study and build. I got all the old kits out of the attic and have begun setting up my work table. How heartbreaking to see that all of my built kits had been dumped in a box and are totally destroyed and most of my paint is rattling around in the bottles! However, I do have many unbuilt kits to work on. In particular, Tamiya M3A2 Half Track #35070-no instructions. I’ve been on the internet for 3 hours this morning trying to find a copy. Would anyone be able to advise? Tamiya’s website is a “no-go”. Thanks for any assistance!

[#welcome] back to the fold, and the forums! Sorry I cannot help you with your instruction search, but I bet someone over the Armor section could probably help you out. Good luck! [tup]

Thanks, Nam. Wings are good builds as well, sir. With the wide range of 1/35 & 1/32 figure sizes, it is easy to incorporate several figures in with my aircraft. What do you mainly build?

Hey Chris! I build strictly A/C (at this point)…and am d@mned slow at it, too! I just got back to the hobby myself after many years off.

I have three A/C in work, plus one A/C that I use to re-learn and try new techniques on. But between work and moving my workspace 3 times, (and spending too much time here[:D]) I am woefully behind![BH]

Harv’s logo is a Group Build badge…you’ll get it once you visit the Group Builds forum…(they also have GB’s for…armor)
