Hello from Wash DC

[jmpva]

Back into figures after a 10 year break....called marriage. Now that that's over it's back to playing with toys. Cars,ships and figures are my faves. On any given day I wander off on a different path. Overall I have been buiding for about 45 years. I walked into Valley Plaza Hobbies one day and saw figures for the first time. I bought a Phoenix figure (OK so shoot me) and that started my figure painting. A few weeks ago I looked at the websites and succumbed to.....yes..another female figure. La Corsaire 200mm bust by Pegaso

Always been a sucker for a pretty face.....

Welcome to planetFigure Jack, just about the same story for me, models, toys then girls.................................. then married, then models, then figures

Plenty of help here in our community and always happy to see a new face!

Hello Jack:

And welcome to PlanetFigure. Hopefully, your return to the multi-faceted
hobby will be one of fun and a sense of satisfaction. I am sure we all know
that model building/figure modeling is great therapy, right?

Thanks everyone. My pirate girl is finished and I will post a photo this weekend. This is Euro-miltaire weekend right? Can only imagine the stress of seeing a dozen or more new realeases and then having to decide......wish I was there!

Greetings Jack,

Good to see a fellow DC-er onboard! Do you know of the National Capital Model Soldier Society (www.ncmss.org)? They have a show coming up this Saturday, Sept. 10th at NoVA Community College.

I'm also just getting back into figure painting after a long hiatus due to marriage and kids.

Ciao,
Patrick
