Hi everyone,
I'm a retired 59 year bloke who has just got back into modelling after a 47 year break but I can still clearly remember slinging together my last model (Airfix Ark Royal) and painting it with a large brush and Humbrol Enamels and no thoughts of seam lines, PE, aftermarket parts, drips, runs or other issues. I'm just about to apply decals to my 1st model (Airfix Spitfire Vb) and although I'm absolutely loving the experience, it's been quite stressful realising how much there is to making a nice model nowadays (and how long it takes!). I've made loads of mistakes (including a rather massive one on the wheel orientation ????) but I'm sort of happy with how it looks and am looking forward to learning from all you Pros in the forum. Hoping my decaling experience goes well ????. Once finished and I work out where/how to post a picture I'll stick it up
