Hi,
I'm new here and although I joined a while back..I've not have anything to post.
Living in Cork Ireland ,where the scale modelling scene is near non existant.., it's good to meet people of a similar interest.
My main interest is out and out race cars in 1/24 / 1/25 , Mostly WRC ,GroupeB, Le mans,Pikes Peak a few nascar's
I started modelling at the age of 9 but after a few glue bombs...I forgot about it for years.
My 1st Model was an AMT/Matchbox Mk2 Capri.. I still have is...although it never got paint.
that's the intro..
here's my attempt at getting back Modelling,so feel free to suggest and point out mistakes..
I wanna get my model building up to standard ..
Thanks
Punch.
he's a few pic's of my most recent attempt at model building..
(4 years ago since..)
I started it while living/working In West Virgina. these kit's can be picked up very cheap in Walmart and AC Moore.
While inWalmart I picket up this Testors Mighty Mini airbrush and compressor set..suitable for beginers..
ok here's as far as I got... (please note the Tub /interior is badly positioned..,only taken stright outa the storage box..)
there are numerous errors with my build..but 2 are the main concern..
1.The paint is very poor on the body
2. and the engine detail(1 st attempt at wiring the engine ..distrubuter) or bad.
I've been reluctant to post these pic's as it's embarrassing TBH..
but I feel if I did't post somthing soon... I'd be guity of being a fenc sitter.
I'll commence building this soon and add the pick's here to this thread...
I hope anyone here on MCM will feel free to comment and help to get back into the Hobbie.
Later!!!!
