Been modeling for about 8 months now and have been active mainly on SMA forum and have enjoyed every second of my new hobby. I've completed two kits, one which won 3rd place in a spring contest.

Currently in the Navy, serving on submarines, but I'm stuck on land for a bit and needed a good passtime. Located in North FL/sout GA. Reaching out to new communities to get some new inspiration and networking going before I finally move back home to Pennsylvania.

Glad to be here and hope to meet plenty of modelers and friends here


-Cheers

Welcome fellow sunshine state member. Where do you live? I'm in Jacksonville and used to live in Fernandina.

I'm at KingsBay base so I'm a 30 minute drive from Jax. This humidity is brutal today.

Welcome aboard!

I think you'll find this hobby has a very wide variety of interests and avenues to explore. It's undergone a lot of growth and just seems to keep getting better. And as others will tell you, it does tend to be a lifelong passion with many rediscovering it after many years of not modeling. So welcome and good luck!

Welcome aboard bubblehead.
I'm over in Lake City, about an hour west of Jacksonville.

I hear you on the humidity. I have to do all of my airbrushing outside. High humidity, poorer finish; not to mention dodging the storms.
