Reporting in from WV

[Festus]

Hello all, Festus here...I figured it was time I went the full nine and signed up for an account here. I got bitten by the modeling bug again recently, and decided to throw my proverbial hat back into the ring after a 20 year break. I must say, it's an entirely different beast when you add the internet to the mix! I'm amazed at the work I see on this site and others, which just made that old modeling bug bite all that much harder.

This seems like a wonderful community, and I look forward to learning from the folks here. See you around the boards!

Welcome Festus. Bout two and a half from WV here. Actually used to race at a track in WV called Summit Point Raceway, right off the Inwood exit on Int 81. Run a wrestling tournament down in Moorestown, WV as well. Definitely always interesting when visiting WV LOL. Love the court house in Harpers Ferry.

Youre in good company here Festus. I have only recently got back into it myself and
Iam more addicted than ever. It is an awesome community which keeps me hanging
out in here most days of the week.

Welcome aboard

Thanks for all the warm welcomes, everyone! I believe I found my practice build this evening...I stumbled upon an old AMT Slave-1 kit from 1995, just wasting away in a box in the attic. Fortunately it was still shrink wrapped, so it has all the parts! Might build it up as a custom Firespray, since I was never too keen on Boba's or Jango's paint schemes for the ship.

So hopefully this weekend, it'll be time to get down to business. Hope to have some progress to show soon!
