Smile Greetings from frosty Pawtucket, Rhode Island

Hi,

I've enjoyed building paper models for around 8 years but took a small break from them and am just now getting back to hobby. I've always found the paper modeler community to be friendly and encouraging and look forward to becoming an active member.

Question: What is the main source for your supply of paper models. I used to purchase mine from PMI, but from the looks on the date of the catalog it appears that they are no longer in business (please tell me I'm wrong!). I've also found Digital Navy and Fiddler's Green great places to shop on the Internet.

I'm still in the process of picking out a new project and am stuck between choosing a ship or plane. There's almost too many to choose from, so I'm looking for recommendations. I'd say I could probably complete a moderately difficult model without too much frustration. I'm a fan of military history so something along those lines would appeal to me.

Thanks,
Allan
