Case in point, my F-14A Jolly Roger
Last Saturday, I competed for the first time in a model show. I figured it would be a good experience to keep my creative skills fresh and competitive. After attending a show last year, I promised to get something in. Now I've noticed how the average age of a scale modeler hovers around a 55 year old retired military description who has most likely built models for decades. They are DAMN good too. I didn't think I stood any chance but I still gave it a try.
Boy, I was wrong. I think I'll go for broke next year. :D
