Jerry Meeuwse Posted October 4, 2024 Posted October 4, 2024 Hello, My name is Jerry and I live south of Weatherford Texas. That's about an hour West of Dallas/Ft.Worth. I'm originally from Kalamazoo MI. born and raised. Moved south in 2003. Couldn't stand the winters any more. I started building models as a young kid. Then life took up my time. Now I'm retired I started back up and really enjoy it. I mainly build cars and trucks. 1/24, 1/25 scale. I've been painting with an airbrush for years and love it for model building. I've tried pretty much all types of paint and like old school lacquer but have made the change to more environmentally friendly paints. Createx is my go to paints 99% of the time. I love their products and their videos on how to. I do use 2K clears to finish. I like to research the kits I build for accuracy and if I'm building it to stock spec's I try to match the original paint codes and interior colors. I also like customizing kits. Big blown engines, raising or lowering. Kit bashing is a blast. I try to customize and detail stuff myself and not buy those aftermarket parts, but I have. Anyway I love model building and love checking out other people's builds. Thanks yall. See ya out there. Jerry 2

Jim Dodson Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Jerry, after 20+ years, I think you qualify to call yourself a 'Texan'! I came to Texas at four years old and say I'm a Texan, but my wife who is native born pushes back asking me "when did I go through the naturalization ceremony?" My reply..."When I graduated boot camp at Lackland" Welcome to the Forum. Sweet lookin' bike! Jim Dodson Rockwall, TX
