Smile Hello from Florida USA

Hello everyone

Found this forum through looking at build info on the Apollo crawler transporter model from MicroArtwork whih I have now ordered.

Have a keen interest in space modeling having lived through all the space program launches and witnessing the moon landings.

Thanks for putting this together and I look forward to many happy hours perusing the forum and seeing what everyone else is doing.

William (Bill) Bucklew

Hi Bill! Welcome to the forum. Thanks for joining. A couple of subforums that you might want to dig into are First Cuts - A Lounge and Tips and Tricks. They are full of good information whether you're an experienced paper modeler or not. We're glad you're here. Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the forum! Nice to see another Floridian paper modelling! I never was able to witness an actual launch live, but I have visited Cape Canaveral three or four times. One of our scout activities was a sleepover under the Saturn V in the museum there. Welcome aboard!

Cory

Hello and welcome. You have done well by stopping by this forum. One of, if not the, most informed ones on the topic of paper modeling.
