Well, after a long absence, I’m back in the hobby full force. I just bought a 1/24 model of the same car I currently drive: a 2002 Camaro. Anyway, I found a 35th anniversary Camaro kit and painted/detailed it to match my car. Turned out pretty good and it seems as if model building is like riding a bike.
O.K. While I was at the hobby shop, I noticed the Tamiya 1/24 Enzo Ferrari, Rossa Corsa and without knowing what I was getting into, bought the kit. Well after doing some research and reading some reviews etc. I am now fully immersed into this wonderful kit. Of course I also bought the Scale Motorsports full detail kit to go along with it. As I had to start from ground zero, I have also purchased numerous tools, paints, thinners, glues, airbrush, compressor etc. etc. etc. I think I have well over $500 invested in these two model kits alone!!! Jeeezzz, I’m amazed at how expensive the hobby has become. Heck, I have never even seen photo etch until now!! Also, I’m still hooked on enamels and have yet to try the acrylics…
Anyway, I’m glad to be back and the Enzo is a great challenge to begin with. I’m looking forward to learning many new techniques and sharing some pics etc. Also, I hope to participate in some group builds too.
Bye for now and I’ll try to get some “in progress” pics of the Enzo.
