Oh this is gonna be sooooooo much fun!  Never been in a modeling contest before but i got a competitive streak a mile wide!  Got so many awesome builders here and I just hope I can an honorable mention or something!  I think the main thing is would be we all have fun doing something we all love to do!  I'd really like to see some of the Juniors get in on this.  I stop and think about how much I've learned since I opened the very first model I did.  It was an F-15 Airplane (I think the Blue Angels kit) and I ended up taking all the pieces off the sprues first thing.  If I knew then what I know now... I tell ya, I probably would have still taken the pieces of the sprues, but I'd have some better tools to hold them while I painted! LOL  So much paint... so little finger skin and dining room table surface left to cover! LOL  After that I think I built a El Camino and that's when I really started paying attention.  Mom let me take the completed car to school for show and tell.  I can still remember pointing out all the wires I painted under the hood thinking it was so cool!  I think that's what got me hooked.  Knowing that everyone really liked seeing what I built with my bare hands... and all at 6 years old.  Those were the days and I know if we get the juniors of today as interested as we were back then, this hobby will last forever!
