Some Bio about me

General Discussion Welcome - Introduce Yourself

Hi. I am a 14 year old. I just recently graduated 8th grade, and I am about to enter high school. Wonder how I can keep building models, when there’s geometry, English Class, Biology.

Anyway, I used to live in the Philippines, but I moved to the USA about 3 years ago, 2018. I never really built a model in my old country, only Gundam models, since paint, and tools are expensive and rare. To be frank, the only modeller I knew at the time in my old country was my dad, and his friend.

It wasn’t until I moved here that I started scale modelling. I live near Chicago, Illinois, in a suburb. I only built 1 model, which is an A6M3 Zero.

As of now, I am building a paper model 757-200 Delta Airlines. I am almost done, just have to add the gears and the antennas. Hopefully, I have some time during the summer to start and finish my Corvette. Cheers!

Welcome to the Forums! Glad to have you with us. Looking forward to seeing your work.

If you ever have any questions/problems, don’t be afraid to ask for help. The members here are very knowledgeable and ready to help. A lot of them have been here for a long time and been in the same place. I’ve been building models of all types for 74 of my 80 years and have learned a lot from the members here. WWI and WWII fighters are my favorites followed by sailing ships and anything that strikes my fancy at the time and my wallet says OK.
