Salute! Ya'll! and Greetings, from Newport News Va

My name is Randy and I’m originally from Abilene Texas! Since I am re-living some of my childhood memories (i’m 41 & I used to spend every dime on 1/72 & 1/48 scale warbirds) I have just gotten back into modeling about a year now… Of course I didn’t have an airbrush back then (heh heh) and could whip one out in about 3 hours! and it looked as could as a 12 year old could make back then with a couple cans of spray paint and 3 or 4 bottles of testors…[:)]! Anyway, I’m having a Great time with it, and looking forward to helpful hints and ideas…
I got a chance to attend the IPMS Nations in VaBeach and that ruined me! What Great Talent! I encourage anyone who hasn’t seen one to make plans to attend! I am currently working on an AM 1/48 RAF MK1 Mustang, and 1/48 Academy P-47D… both are Great kits, and I use Squadron Mail Order for most of my modeling needs…

Salute! and Salutations!

Welcome aboard Randy, you’ve come to the right place to improve your talents. Don’t be afraid to ask around here…someone’s bound to have the answers that you seek.

Hey Randy … let me second Robert’s welcome …

This IS a great place for answers to your questions, whatever they may be … just find the right forum for the question and ask away. Glad to hear that you are returning to the hobby … and you are correct … everyone should attend IPMS functions as often as possible, as well as being an IPMS member.

Again, welcome and have fun!

Hi Randy
I also welcome you to this great site… Enjoy!
