Good afternoon all,
My name is Chris Thompson and I am a 33 y/o rookie modeler from East Lansing, Michigan (Home of Michigan State University). I work for the East Lansing Police Department as a Police/Fire/EMS dispatcher and also as a member of our Special Response Team (Tactical Unit).
At present I am working on a Gulf War 2 diorama with an M2A2, M1A1, Mt-Lb and a T-72. My current project is building/fighting/swearing at, the add-on cargo baskets to the sides of the Bradley.
Anyway, thats all for now, thanks for this awsome site and I hope to become a useful member of this society.
Best regards,
Chris

Hello to you and a warm welcome too. Hastyp in my view has been a bit modest as I'm sure that this is the best site in the GALAXY!!!

Hey welcome aboard from sunny Central Indiana. I hope you find this site half as helpful as I do. I went to Purdue, which I hope is better than IU.

Hello and welcome! As a Washington State grad still smarting over our defeat in the 1998 Rose bowl, I think that we share a deep animosity towards the University of Michigan. If so, we'll get along famously!

Scoccia I`m sorry my lad but I think you are a bit modest bout the site too.
ctmi911 Welcome
This is the BEST SITE IN THE GALAXY AND FAR BEYOND. Why?? Because we have 2500+ of the friendliest finest people that are available on the face of the earth that will answer any question you have. You have only to remember two rules:
1. There is no such thing as a stupid question
2. If there is a stupid question then it`s the one that isn`t asked
(not really bad rules eh?? :-) :-) :-) ) If you post a question you get mostly multiple answers and mostly at the same day... so that`s cool
I hope you have a good time here on the site and maybe you could post some pics of your projects in the future
