New to modeling and cant wait to learn

[BIG NICKY]

just recently started a stock car that a friend gave me to practice with before I start my 57 Chevy or my general lee. also I was told by my friend to come here and I would be amazed by the work and time that may of you invest in your models and also the information that can be found on this forum would save me many headaches and time.

thank you

Welcome here, and this would be the place to acquire a seemingly infinite amount of tips and shortcuts for recreating scale replica stuff, along with attendance at any variety of large or small model contests. What I've seen over the years is that just about every modeler is approachable and more than willing to share such information, whether it's a person who only started building a couple of years ago to the guy who has two grand champion Best of Show awards under his belt. The other fun thing to discover is there is often more than one good way to achieve a scale model effect. For example, over in a thread about creating thin piping stripes for seat upholstery, I tossed in my tip, but read about another that I hadn't thought of and might end up using instead.
