Hey ATF members, I've recently come back to modelling (mainly airfix) after years of neglect, A few kits left gathering dust on my shelf eventually made me cave in and whip out my paintset and get cracking.  Will post some pictures of my work soon, and would appreciate all the feedback and tips you guys offer!

feel at home already!  Attempted some photographs of my work so far although my camera is very blurred, trying to get it to go into macro mode but will most likely involve a lot of fiddling ): <
