keeze10 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Like to start of by thanking you for taking the time to read this . 20 y/o male from Ontario, Canada & I joined about 2 or 3 days ago, just never got around to posting. I'm pretty much new to the hobby of model car building. I prefer the 1/24 scale muscle cars(chevys)/trucks but thinking about giving a 1/8 a try for my next project. Got into it about, 8 years back when I got a snap together model for christmas . Since then I've been on and off taking a break but keep coming back . Found about 4 or 5 completed 2nd skill level's mostly AMT's & Revells (each 1 of them being my expeirence for the next). I'll post pics of them after I clean them up & put some parts back on but @ the moment I'm just finishing up a '86 monte carlo from revell. Feels good to come across a site like this with help, because after seeing peoples amazing work on here and reading through the tips I now know I have alot more skills I can improve on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like something id be interested in, thank you for the heads up & I'm in Hamilton, what about yourself? @clovis @PappyD340 @Slusher @shardik @tonyg thanks again for taking the time to read that It's been a little bit and finally finished the Monte Carlo I posted earlier. The body I had painted and put away for a break so some parts on in it got scuffed up abit & my side windows I glue bombed (any tips on how to improve puttin in windowsm im using that testors glue that comes in the red tube, is there a certain way to use it, or is there a different glue to buy? but here's a link to some models I've previously built & the finished Monte' . Comments & tips & how to improve for future builds would be awesome !(easy on the judging, like I said im still new to this ) http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=78328&p=995110 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
