Hello from also Indiana

[floki]

Hey guys! Looks like I know a lot of you here, was invited by Joe. Really haven't posted on a forum in over a year mainly since most seem to be dead anymore along with other platforms like Discord. Will try to post up some wips and completed builds here in the next few days.

Hey! Welcome to the forum!! This one is a happening place. I’m a fellow Hoosier. We seem to be cropping up everywhere on here! What area of the state are you from? I’m just southeast of Indy myself.

[Tobi]

Welcome to MSC. I hope you will like it here.

And there's Clint!! Thank you for responding to the invite bud. There's a wealth of experience and talent here along with a friendly atmosphere not found on many sites. I'm VERY much looking forward to seeing your work here and catching up with you along the way. It has indeed been a while since I've last seen you post anywhere but I don't think you'll have a problem with the activity level here as there is a LOT of it. As the title of the forum implies, this is a social place as well so feel free to converse about pretty much anything along the way as it's how we get to know each other better.

If you need anything along the way or have any questions about the forum just reach out to me or one of the other staff members that we've got here and we'll give you a helping hand. With that, if you've got any build....post em up brutha.

Welcome to MSC Clint! Relax, have fun and build what you like.

[stikpusher]

Hey Clint! Good to see you here. I think that you'll like this place.

Welcome from the other side of the pond!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Going to have to upload my work to post image, I've got so spoiled on being able to upload straight to discord

very cool. I’ve spent a fair amount of time in Muncie. I’m planning to check out the big show you guys put on. Haven’t ever been to a show at all but I’m really wanting to check one out.

Hey Clint! Great to see another Hoosier here! You probably know me as I am the only deaf guy at our IPMS RT club! Love that hobby shop in Muncie but it has been a while since I went there so I need to stop by soon.

[Tojo72]

Welcome aboard,good to see you over here.

[Joe Rix]

Welcome to MSC Clint. I do believe that you will be pleasantly surprised to find that the forum is nowhere near dead. You will find plenty of activity and participation here. You will also find a group of folks who are immensely talented and incredibly supportive. Not only do I hope you share your work here but, also that you check out other great modeling going on here. Glad to have you. Enjoy!

[M1Carbine]

Welcome Aboard Floki, glad to have you here.

Of course I know you Andy, I'm looking forward to your presentation next month. The shop here in Muncie isn't as good as it use to be, he mainly stocks cars and RC stuff now. I understand it what makes him money though

[Steve Zuleski]

Hey, Clint, relax, pull up a chair and join the crew. Everyone is not the same here, but we all, "sniff paint and glue our fingers together", so actually, we are, HA! Have fun Buddy, and welcome aboard!

Cheers, Ski.

P.S. Ruck On, Bby!

[keavdog]

Hey Clint. Welcome. We have to start up the zoom meetings again.

Gosh! It is happening to many hobby shops too. I went to Phil's Hobby in Fort Wayne and I wasn't impressed either. It has been two years since I visited that shop in Muncie. At least they have to do to survive every changing hobbies out there and I will not stop visiting them as long as I can grab supplies.

[buddho]

Hi and welcome, Clint!

[chromdome35]

Hey welcome to MSC! You've stumbled on a little slice of modeling heaven. This is a great site full of master modelers.

So true, he stocks alclad, Tamiya and Mr. Hobby paints so it's nice to be able to stop in and pick that up when I need it, even though the past year he hasn't been to fast on restocking his paint selection

A little bit of something is preferable to what is to be found in Shelbyville. Which is a whole lot of nothing. Hobby wasteland. I basically have to order everything online these days, although I do make a few trips up to Castleton and buy some things from the local Hobbytown to hopefully keep them around.
