Hello everybody!

I started building kits about a month ago - Chevy S10 Waverider by Monogram.

This is my first kit and I'm not too happy with the final result. I hope i can improve in future models.

I try to post some picks when i finish it.

I really enjoy reading all off yours posts, they are very helpful and you guys make really gooooooood models.

Congratulations to you all.

Hi Obarbosa,

Sorry I don't speak, read or write any Portuguese.... Will Dutch do too? :D

Anyhow, Building models gives you the experience needed to improve. And improve you will, if you've been building for a month!! Read the FAQ on this site and take a look at www.modelersite.com . It's a Argentinian site so it's in English and Spanish. If you get new ideas on new techniques don't try to alter everything at the same time. Do one or two new techniques per model. That way you have a good excuse to keep building and you keep your challenges "doable". That way the risk of quitting a model because of "screwed-up" parts gets less too.

Happy modeling!!!!
Erik.

Cheers Obrigado para o elogio. :D O Internet permite que eu comunique-se bem além de minha própria abilidade. ;)

"Obrigado pelo elogio. A Internet permite que eu comunique bem além da minha própria abilidade."
