Just wanted to say Hello. Looking forward to getting started again on some modeling. Ive build balsa wood models in the past, but am now interested in moving to plastic. Leaning towards 1/35th scale WWII era armor. Found this site to be a great help and very interesting. Look forward to more discussions and such. Have never worked with anything other than balsa... Any tips or advice along the way would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello Chris ,
Welcome to Armorama. As for tips and advice you'll always get your answer. There are many experienced veteran modelers willing to give advice. We may even be asking your advice on balsa, many here use it to build bridges and building for dioramas. What have you built with the balsa wood, do you have any photos to share! Looking forward to seeing your posts and pics Chris, enjoy your stay.
