Mckay

Welcome to the Forums McKay [#welcome]. Looking forward to seeing your builds.

Regards, Rick

I’m new here in the aircraft section, but been lurking around the forums for quite a while… Just recently posted my F4F-4 plane here… it’s on the bottom of the page as for now, or on the second page…

And McKay, just a little “Caution”. Here, in this section, they do love to chat. So do have atleast 10 mins to spare! [(-D]

Welcome to the forums [#welcome] and can’t wait to see the A-10! [:)]

And Rjkplasticmod, I do like the quote on the bottom of your signature. [#toast]

There not much to tell. Just a old retired guy that has been building models off and on most of his life. I started as a youngster building ten cent balsa kits and progressed to plastic when they came along. I build all types of models aircraft, cars, trucks, ships and you get he picture.

I quit building models when I got hitched because everyone said it was for kids. Then when my son got old enough and was interested I got to helping him and that started me off again. In about 1978 I helped start a local model club that is still going today. The Golden Spread modelers meet every second Saturday on the month at Hobby Time Hobby Shop here in Amarillo,Texas. I also teach a modeling class for beginners at the hobby shop and just try and enjoy my hobby and have fun along the way.

I finished a Tamiya 1/32 F-14A Tomcat in VF-84 high vis markings a couple of months ago. As a club project I built the Revell Old School Spitfire and am working on the Trumpter 1/32 A-10 in a Euro 1 Flying Tigers sceam.

Hi and welcome to the forums.

I gotta say, what took you so long??? [:D]

Mike

Nubes say the darnedest things[:D] 10 minutes? If your only here for 10 minutes you are not dedicated[;)] You are right though, we are a friendly bunch that will prattle on about that, that and the other… Like the other day I was chatting with Frank… he’s the Daywalker…something about a creature that can come out in the day time or his wife let’s him out for the day when he’s good… can’t remember… heck I go out in the day time all the time… no biggie… heck of a guy though… great modeler…you’ll like him…about a trade the SOMEONE made… planes for armor… about who got the better deal… Oh yeah… I am the one that got the armor…that’s why I put the Kyofu aside… was waiting for the Rosie the Riveter to arrive… needed to work on something… can’t just sit around…

Oh my, sorry… listen to me just going on. I am supposed to be welcoming you. BTW, this is the serious part of the post) And I do…[#welcome] Looking at what you are working on you haven’t lost a step. Good to have you here. Keep posting your work.

Oh baby[zzz] I am prattled out… for now[}:)]

EDIT: I forgot to ask… do you call your work area the “McCave”?

Sorry, I couldn’t resist[V]

No problem I kinda like McCave as a work area name Yes

Mckay[C):-)]

Who knows what the problem is that took me so long. Oh I remember now I’m just old and slow.
