Velcome to the forum John...just had vindoloo curry and the accent and head shaking kicked in. :tears-of-joy: I look Chinese but swear to have Indian blood...Eurasian ancestors were a busy lot.
With the current situation let's not waste any time so get stuck in and post your build progress. Best way for us to guide you along with positive constructive criticism and pointers. We've all been through first builds proud as hell just like a new born baby all wrinkly that only a mother can love at first sight so we don't scare easily.:smiling2: Give us your best shot.

Cheers,
Richard aka Wabble

John,
welcome to the forum - I too have mobility problems, and the hobby is something you can carry on without too much difficulty, unless you go for large scale models! Questions? Just ask away, queries on any subject, and someone will give you an answer! Above all enjoy yourself

Greetings and Welcome John! Don't worry about brush painting, there are still some of us who stay true to tradition - just take your time, don't be afraid to wait and move on to another part of the kit (within reason of course!) if you hit a mojo block! Airbrush work is often superb but the hairy stick (buy some reasonable ones to start with) can produce excellent results - just clean 'em properly!

You'll learn an awful lot here, there are countless hints and tips to be found.

When I first joined I introduced myself then I simply navigated my way around the site to get an understanding of where everything is.

There's pretty much an answer to any modelling query you have once you know where to look.
