WOW!! This place is a gold mine of information. I have been looking for tips and techniques to get started. Its not easy to find info like that all together in one place.
Anyway, I'm sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.
I have never built a real model car before. My mom got me a die-cast General Lee for Christmas that required about 30 mins to assemble. It was really fun, so I have decided to try my hand at real modelling. I had no idea how deep and involved this hobby is. It is pretty overwhelming at first.
My goal is to model all the cars from the Dukes of Hazzard. I have counted 35 so far that I want to model (this includes bad-guy cars, Chawktaw County police cruisers, old Moonshine runnin cars, and the like). I am sure I will need a lot of help so I have found the right place. I hope to get to know some of you guys.
Later

Welcome to AF. I was really new to the hobby about 5 weeks ago, but sense then, I have almost completed one model that looks pretty good for a first car. It is amazing how much you learn, and when you think you understand something after looking at it once, then you learn something more the second time. I never knew how in depth this hobby was either until a few weeks ago. It is super fun, and any free time I get now, I model. In about a week or two I should have my truck up as a first model, but I cannot airbrush it because weather...... Anyways welcome - Toyota00
