I've been around these parts for several months, but I never really introduced myself properly..
My name is Pedro (feel free to use it), I'm from Portugal and I'm 21 years old. I've started building models AFTER I joined AF. When I began my vacations from college, I needed a hobby, and what better hobby than building cars?! :D
Anyway, my first model was a Ferrari F40 and I must say that I am very pleased with the end result, although I know it's crap...then I started a KURE Nismo GT-R, due to the fact that was the only kit I could afford at that moment ($12). It came out pretty nice, I even attempted a scratchbuilt fire extinguisher! Now I'm building a Ford Focus RS 02 WRC but I've only completed the rollcage and some minor parts..(all kits are from Tamiya)
Here are some pics.I do apologize for the crap quality, but the digital camera I borrowed from a friend was really crappy :D.
-Edit- I can't seem to find the attachment option...
