Hey everybody, I’d just like to introduce myself. . .
I am a 15 year old student in Pennsylvania and I really enjoy doing airplane and chopper models. Under my belt I have completed: 1/48 Monogram F-14A, 1/48 Monogram A-10, 1/48 Monogram AH-64A Apache, (yeah, I pretty much only do 1/48 Monograms. . .[:p]) 1/48 Revell F-16, 1/48 Monogram MI-24 Hind, 1/32 Monogram P-51, and a bunch of other stuff. My most recent model was a 1/48 Monogram P-61 Black Widow painted flat black. After I go back and fix my models that got wrecked through various accidents, I am going to start a F-15E. Also in a box is a HE-111.
Other hobbies I have include playing the sax (alto) and playing on the computer.
So there. I’ve been doing models off and on for about seven years now and I really enjoy it. And each one turns out better than the last.

Welcome to FSM SilverGhost. It’s great to have another youthful modeller join us here. Your final line in your intro says it all, hold onto that principal and you will get the most out of this hobby or ours.
Hi ya silverghost …
Welcome to the FSM Community Modeling Forum(s). [:)]
I am glad to see another young modeler joining our little group … (not so little now … last check … we were 16,000 + strong) … we need more of you young guys and gals … you are the future of the hobby.
Spend some time here reading and posting … give us your ideas and opinions … they count a lot.
I agree with my friend Shermanfreak … your final line in your intro is an outstanding way to look at our hobby … "And each one turns out better than the last. "
Again, welcome … and have fun!!! [^]
Hey SilverGhost
Welcome to the forum - Both Steve and Robert noted the last line in your introduction - that’s what it’s all about. Listen to the guys and gals here and ask questions - remeber many of us have been building for many more years than you’ve been alive (I’ve been building for about 35 years) and if you’re unsure about something, just ask - I’m sure there’s heaps of folks out there who will have an answer for you.
In the mean time, have fun, and it’s great to see that every model you make is better than the last one.
Cheers, mate
