Hi,
I just joined. My name is Alex and I live in Wheeling, Illinois. That is a Chicago suburb. I've been modeling for 3 years now. I've been a member of the finescale modeler forums for a while. I hope to get a lot of help here and also help other people.
My other hobby is flying r/c planes.
Thanks.

Alex,
Hello and welcome to the site. As a side note I like to think Armorama is the site that inspired the new-improved FSM site. They did a good job modernizing it too!
Cheers,
Jim
