I remember I believe when Eric actually built models 😜, a Superior Ferrari 643 maybe? From way back then

No, I did a Tamiya Ferrari 641 for my dad which I now have - I need to redo the decals and patch it up a bit...

I am working on kits these days... just not quickly.

It provides such a great wealth of information, which everyone shares so willingly.

Dottore Aitala, grazie mille for what you have facilitated through your efforts in creating and maintaining this forum.

I joined 17 years ago with the hopes of learning and improving my modelling skills. Through the generosity of the members in sharing their accomplishments, I have been able to do so. To all a big thank you.

I build for the enjoyment of building, not only for the sense of accomplishment when finishing a build, but also because it serves as good medicine to help put my mind at ease when life is being a pain.

Thank you Doc E. for providing the medicine.

Thanks to Eric and all the other administrators who have worked on the forum for years of excellent work. I didn't return to the forum until 2016. I was previously logged in with a different name. Unfortunately, I haven't been as active for a while, but I'm here almost every day so I don't miss anything. For me the best and most informative group with great people who always have a positive answer for you. Here’s to another 25 years with this great community.

Congrats Eric! Keeping anything going for 25 years is an achievement, especially in this day and age of short attention spans.
Looking forward to the next 25 years :D
