Beach Bum

Hey everybody! I'm 45 years old with a injured back for the past two years. I needed a hobby to fill my time and decided to attempt some models for the first time. After my first failed attempt at building a 1/24 scale truck I almost gave it up. I knew that there had to be a better way and started checking out You Tube. Watched a couple videos of guys who sounded like they new what they were doing and seeing their end result I was even more discouraged. I was thinking "this can't be the best I can expect". THEN I happened to come across Dr. Cranky and was amazed at what could be done! I started watching his videos and still am in the process of watching them all. He has fueled my desire to build and shown me that you can build some really nice models! I want to give him props for helping me along the way and inspiration to keep on trying. I started slowly building up my supply's six months ago and filling my brain with the how to's. I've yet to fully complete a model but I'm getting close to accomplishing that goal. He recommends this site in one of his videos, so here I am. I look forward to all your help and welcome any and all criticism. Thanks, Kevin
