Hello from Texas

Hello I am Russ, and I am a model builder. [:)]. I started building when I was a kid with the model of the month club. Later with a friend I conitued on into high school. I stopped when he moved and I did not start again until I moved to where I was going to college. This was also the time that I found FSM at a bookstore. That really got me back into it even though I could barely afford a model or the subscription But every month I looked forward to the mag. and still do. I have been building ever since though lately I have started more than I have been able to finish…oh well.
I build mainly aircraft though I did go through an armor fix for a while and I still get the urge to build armor now and again but right now the aircraft pull is just alittle stronger. I have been lurking around these boards for a while and now decided to just go ahead and join. So here I am. [:D]

Welcome to FSM.

Thank everyone for the welcome.

I plan to post some pixs since I have just got a digital camera. I may dust off some of the armor models that I have done and post them.

J-man, I am in Houston and today I went over to San Antonio to the Modelfiesta Show there. They had a good turn out and and a good show. There were some real works of art there as well.

Well thanks again.
Russ
