Welcome! This board is fantastic and got me back to modeling. You will learn a lot from here, and the diversity is fantastic. Questions do get answered as well. Just make sure to read the FAQ.

Diversity is the honest truth about this place. Not only are there all sorts of cars built here (as well as trucks and bikes anw whatever else) but there are so many different styles and skill levels here, that I really doubt anyone here is left wanting. And there's always someone here with and answer. Sure is nice.

I agree with everyone, I wish I would have found this place alot earlier, but when i first started coming to AF i was modifiying 1/43 diecast cars, and all these plastic modelers made me want to pick up where I left off on an old ford platic model, and everyone here is always striving to do better, so it inspires me and makes me want to do better

Re: You People Are Great!!!!!!!

I am going to see if we can partner up with some kind of modeling outlet so that you guys could spend a bit less money on your hobby

That would be awesome. Thank you Igor.

This forum is probably one of the best I've seen. There are tons of nice people, and it's almost like one big family. Even to the younger kids out there like me. Most places, not all, but most hate little kids.

Contact Hobby Link Japan and show them this forum; perhaps they will realize how much business we give them.

Why go through them???
Just contact Fujimi and Tamiya, and they could send like test-models, and we could build them for free, and give feedback ;-)

JK, sometimes it's nice to dream right ???

Yeah, of course. At least I know I'd be happy to help, and knowing a lot of the guys on this board, and how big their hearts are, I'm sure everyone would love to help.
