nother newbie rolling in. Hey all.

Name: Elizel Villegas (erm, yeah. Female. XD)
Age: 21 going on 12
Location: Quezon City
School: UST- AB Journalism
Occupation: 5th year SuperSenior in a 4-year course. Boo~.
Interests: aircraft, blogging, photography, tv, fried chicken, other unremarkable stuff. o_O
Model interests: Aircraft. Currently building (well, trying to build) a 1:72 F-14A. I am a total n00b to this. XD I plan to leech off the wisdom of the expert builders in this forum.



Greetings fellow Thomasian!

2nd yr. ako sa Arki ngayon. Nice to know modelers nearby. Di mo lang alam, meron pang ibang modellers sa Uste ngayon. Medyo out-of-reach nga lang dahil iba-iba yung mga sked.

Ang tagaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal ko nang hindi nag post dito sa armorama. Ano nga ba? mga almost 2 yrs na ata.

To all newcomers, welcome and enjoy your stay!
Dito ako sa armorama nagstart magseryoso sa modelling kaya kahit minsan lang ako dito, this place will always be special to me.

Remember to always practice, practice, practice and if you don't know, ask! When you've grown confident with your skills, never be afraid to try new things.

Well, most of the members here post in either the aircraft forum or the armor forum. You may spot them from time to time.

Dark Yellow is spot on. This is what I use for all my German armor. A bit close to the real thing. As for static grass, JMN of Harrison's plaza carries one. Price? Don't know. Figure painting is more of practice than technique. You'll learn more by trying different techniques than just "by the book" approach. Read some of the features here on the how to's of fig painting

Better off to post in a new thread as we may be going offtopic.

Hi Shonen.

Shonen_Red: We are mapping (footprint) the entire City of Naga, it's not covered by the GE (Google Earth) Hi-Res Image. Good luck on your thesis.

Buffalo: It's nice to have some rotorheads here. Im a rotor builder too, only in 1/72. Welcome back to the hobby.

Happy building.
