Hi all,
I've been registered on here for a couple of weeks but just been skulking in the background admiring the awesome work you do.
A little about me....My first name's Colin and I'm 32, I'm returning to modelling after being into it from the age of 12 to about 15, then I discovered girls and the model cars fell by the wayside...
Anyhoo, since leaving school Ive always been involved with 1:1 cars in one way or another but now being married and 2 kids later I don't have; a)the spare cash, or b) the spare time to quench the flow of my creative juices with the real thing so I'd thought I'd get back into the scale alternative...
I've just purchased my 1st kit - a Revell Ferrari F430. I know this may not be the best or most detailled/comprehensive kit around but I thought it would be a good place to start and develop my skills on. Also, the fact i scored it cheap on the 'bay helps too.... I'll do a WIP thread when I get going.
Just a quick question... Anyone know where I can find a list of 'must-haves/essentials' and possibly the 'most-used' paints? i.e. a list of the basic bits i need to get me up and running and what paints you seem to use on most builds (blacks, silvers etc)
Thanks for your time and keep up the stirling work
