Just never been able to stay in one place long enough make it a regular hobby. Im finally there and have been building as much as I can to slowly improve. Look forward to all the awesome builds I will find on here. As well as learning more and more.

Welcome aboard James. I really like that Saturn V build! That's beautiful! and you sure made that 64 Chevy pickup truck into one realistic looking build.

Welcome aboard,it's been awhile but I really used to enjoy visiting the Bay area Thank you! There are plenty of things to love about the area, but just as many to dislike about it. Had a friend relocate out to your area, hopefully get to visit soon. Welcome aboard James. I really like that Saturn V build! That's beautiful! and you sure made that 64 Chevy pickup truck into one realistic looking build. Thank you, I appreciate that very much. The Saturn V was a request from my 6 year old. The 64 is on its third trip to the paint booth haha. This is as close as I can get skill wise to the look I was going for. I'm glad someone else likes it!

Hey James, welcome to MSC!!!
I am a bit biased, but I think this is the best forum on the interwebs. There are some really good builders here who are more than happy to share advice, tips and techniques.
I'm looking forward to seeing your builds, what you've posted in this welcome thread looks great. That Saturn rocket is SWEEET!

Seeing all the movement on here, I probably will because I will be doing a lot of firsts on that build. Like Photo Etch and stuff. So the help will be nice to have as the build moves along.

The boy already burned through 2 of them. He turns it on before bed at night and its my job to remember to turn it off after he falls asleep.
