Talking Newbie Here

Hey what's up guys!

I just came across this board and let me say I'm really glad I did.

I've been building models for some years but must admit I haven't taken it as seriously as I should have.

Unfortunately as I find this board and it's wealth of information, I'm already in the finishing stages of a Tamiya 1:24 Alfa Romeo, sadly that model (for the most part) won't see the benefits of my newfound knowledge

BUT, I just bought the 1:24 Mercedes Team Warsteiner CLK, and now that I've gone through the info in here, I can't wait to do this one right!

Just to give you guys a little background on yours truly:

I'm 23, from Southern California. An Automotive Design Major, I'm taking night courses at Art Center College of Design, Pasadena; and working on my portfolio for acceptance. I also work full-time as the Corporate Controller for a small Construction Inspection company.

Well, that's me in a nutshell. Soon as I get some of my drawings scanned I'll post a pic for guys...till then lookin forward to buggin you guys for advice...

Well I'm not in Rancho just yet. I'm in Diamond Bar right now but moving next Saturday to Rancho.

Wasn't aware of any upcoming shows but I'd sure as hell like to go! Where can I get some info on it?
Anyone else going?

Hey insaneoversteer, welcome to the forum.
What’s the Alfa Romeo you’re working now, the 155 V6 TI?

Yeah, I'm finishing up the Bosch 155 that ran in the ITC. Just ordered some Tamiya Polish from imagineanime.com so I can finish this bad boy and move on.
