Hi everyone , back after a long hiatus to the modelling world , amazed at the changes that have occured . namely resin and vallejo.
I have poor eye sight i wear +3.00 glasses just to read a book and my hands seem to be a bit more shakey than i remember.
I will be 60 in a few years and find that modelling helps me relax and is a welcome diversion from drinking and chasing women
But at least I have money now instead of having to nag my parents to buy me another little bottle of airfix paint.
so I have bought the winsor and newtons and a load of vallejo paints books videos a dremel etc .
I am a Brit who moved to the US 20 odd years ago. i was in the British army for 3 years in the mid to late 70's and
five years in the French Foreign Legion in the early 80's .
I am starting slowly buying verlinden vignettes and working on my level
of painting that is so bad it can only get better. I want to make anti war dioramas if that makes sense showing the reality
of war which is pain suffering and misery as opposed to something that is noble and glorious.
I have a lot of questions which hopefully I can find answers to on here.
