[:p]Hi folks

Name is fuimus from Cape Town South Africa. I am 33 and specialise in plane from the WWI era. However, I am new at the whole process and I am still a bit wary of my airbrush. At present I am concentrating on 1/72 scale, however, 1/48 looks like it could be fun. Would appreciate any hints and tips . Or if you just want to say hi, feel free to contacty me

Welcome to the forums, fuimus!

Don’t be afraid of the airbrush. The best thing to do is to get one and practice. I know once you do, will never go back to the old spray cans again!

Welcome fuimus. Eric is right don’t be afraid of the airbrush, just pick it up aim at something you don’t care about and play with it a little and next thing you know it’s spraying your next build.

welcome to the Forums Fuimus
the Dragon WW1 1/48th planes are nice

Hello fuimus and Welcome Aboard! [#welcome]
Now repeat after me…the airbrush is my friend the airbrush is my friend! LOL Actually mines kinda like a friend I lost touch with as Im still waiting for MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!! lol

Hi, I like anything military. But those WWI were a work of heart, since that what you needed to fly one. I perfer 1/144 myself if I could find some.

Welcome to FSM fuimus. Like some of the others have said … no fear with an airbrush … just practice.

Enjoy the forums !!!

Hello fuimus, Welcome to forum. I keep an old kit on hand to try out paint consistency, camo patterns, or any other effects I’m about to try. It will help boost your confidence before you spray the finished kit. Those fine FSMer’s above are 100% right, get your feet wet and go for it![;)]

Glad you could touch down on FSM, friend. Please stick around and have fun. Look into the Aircraft forum and you may find answers there.

Welcome to our little piece of insanity. We’re not all crazy here, it just seems like it.[:P][#welcome][#welcome][#welcome][swg]

[#welcome] Fuimus. Just dive right in there. Don’t be afraid to try different subjects. Ask alot of questions in the correct forum. The more you build the more you will learn. Pass what you have learned onto other modelers.

[#welcome] fuimus we all had to start sometime and speaking for myself I was very wary of my airbrush but now it just another tool for modelling.

Just remember modelling is all about enjoying yourself.

welcome!!!

i too have a fear of my airbrush… perhaps we can start a support group???
