May 27May 27 Greeting from Canada.My name is Andy, and I’ve been building mostly model aircraft (preferably in 1/48th & 1/32nd— with the occasional venture into 1/35th armour and the odd ship model — ever since I helped (hindered at age 8 more like...lol) my grandpa build a model kit in England back in 1977 (an Airfix 1/24 Ju-87 Stuka kit ).I stepped away from the hobby for far too many years, but I’m now making a real effort to dive back in and start working through my growing stash of kits that are waiting for me to build.I’ve seen a lot of great articles and videos of modelers using Cricut and Silhouette machines to create custom paint masks, so I recently picked up a gently used Cricut Explore Air 2 to see if I can learn the ropes myself. Joining this site seemed like the perfect place to start!Looking forward to learning from everyone and hopefully sharing some progress along the way.
