Hi

My name is Cem ( John ) and I have been modelling for 5 years or so. I am 17 years old and I am always interseted in learning the history of war. 1/35 is my favorite scale and I would love to make some friends in this website.

cheers

Welcome, you found the right place!

Hiya John, and [#welcome]

Yep, you are in the right place!

[#welcome] to the forums John! there’s a lot of friendly, knowledgable and talented folks here. Looking forward to seeing you around the boards. [tup]

[#welcome] aboard! If ya have questions just ask away! (in the propper forum ofcourse.) [:)]

Thanxx for the warm welcome!

Yes I do have a question :slight_smile:

I’m build 1/72 and 1/48 aircrafts and need to know how to engrave the panel lines to make the aircraft look more realistic. Any hints?

[#welcome] to the forums, criticalem!!! Hope to see you around the forums![;)]

As for your question try the aircraft section or the techniques section.

[#welcome] to the Forums. You have come to the right place for help.

[#welcome] **John…**Hope to get you out of the darkside someday![(-D]

[#welcome]! It’s easy to find friends here! Do you build armor? aircraft? Sci-fi? Everything? Happy posting!

Thanx for the warm welcome Boba!

I build armor, figures, and create dioramas in 1/35 scale. It is easy to make friends here but I don’t think that you can add one as a friend :frowning: unlike facebook!

What do you build?

For engraving panel lines, I use a needle in a pin vise and a piece of Dymo tape as a guide, or a scribing tool I got from Squadron, or a serrated Xacto blade for short, straight cuts across say- fuselage halves or wing leading edges.

Thanx for the tip [:)]

[#welcome] John ! You’ve joined a great forum here. I’ve been modeling for 40 + years now and still learning some great tips from this place…Hope to see some of your work very soon.

Jerry

Thankx for the warm welcome Jerry,

Wow! 40 years of experienced modeling…just goes to show how wonderful this hobby is!

Always a pleasure to see your work, but you might not see me posting any pictures.

Thanks for joining us. LEE

Welcome to the forums man. Youll find some of the greatest people here, and the nicest. Now get ta’ buildin!

Welcome to the forums John!

Welcome John, most people here are older, but few of us are in our 13,14 15 16 etc. Can we see some pictures of your finished builds? [:)]

Thanks,

Unfortuantly you will not see me posting any photos of my work because I joined to learn more about modeling instead of sharing [:)]

But I would love to see some of your work.
