Hi all I'm newbe here. Basicly I'm new to the whole model scene. Just looking for summit to fill in my time, as in a baker and get finished at 1 pm so got a lot of time to kill till the wife gets home. Am a huge car fan having had over 35 cars since passing my test 11 years ago. Lol. But don't own one at the moment as u live 5 mins from my work. So I just push bike, and the wife needs a car fir her work. Anyway just got myself a few models to get me started, got civic type r crx mustang a few ferraris few pug 206s. I've started one if the ferraris and a pug. Not looking the best as I'm not the best with a spray can. Anyway that's all about me. Oh and I live in scotland and um 30. Looks like a great forum. C ya

Hello and welcome.
Take a look on the car section and feel free to ask or add comments. Most things can be answered, and usually in a friendly way too ;D Don't forget the other areas though as they can all help and give you some ideas.
Cheers Rich

Welcome to the forum - and the world of scale modelling. I'm not a car modeller but I'll talk to anyone! Seriously, stick around and think about getting along to a branch meeting near you...

... Is it easy to upload pics? Welcome to the forum, I see our resident car and motorcycle nut Richard has already found you. It is easy to upload photos, simply follow the info posted previously by Richard. Just one request though, please keep your pics down to 800 pixels wide maximum, there are loads of reasons for this, the main one is that the larger the pics, the slower they download and unfortunately, some of our members still don't have the luxury of broadband. Please also read the FAQ's, there's loads of information there.

Welcome to the madness ;D If you can get yourself along to the Scottish Nationals at Perth in April. It'll give you food for thought and allow you to see a lot of awesome models of all types and you'll be able to ask any of the exhibitors questions how they've done things. The 206 is looking good.
