1/24 Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Hello everyone! My name is Alex and I'm from Australia, I am just starting to get into modelling, and as such have been searching around the net for inspiration and education and have come across this forum which I thought was pretty cool. I have only completed one model so far, a Johnny Lightning Charger I had sitting in my cupboard for like 8 years or so, which I thought of doing but never got around to many times, so after lots of opening it and closing it I decided to give it a go and I loved it. I love working on real cars and such but as an 18 year old I can't afford to do too much so modelling is a nice way to let my imagination run wild without taking my wallet with it. My Dad used to be quite heavily into modelling (Mostly Tamiya Formula 1 kits and such) So he is also part of my reason for getting into it. Here's some pics of the Charger, not great I know but it was missing the odd part and I just wanted to see if I'd enjoy building it so I kind of did it pretty quick, but my next build (Tamiya R32 GTR, when it arrives) Should be 100x nicer. Cheers.
JTalmage Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Welcome! Always wanted to visit Australia... but I'm poor. Plus if I went there I'd probably not want to come back. At least without a '73 Falcon XB GT in my possession!
