Hello everyone.
I just joined this site tonight. I am VonCudas son. He has been showing me around here for a few weeks now and we have both learned lots of cool stuff. I just started building models and my dad is helping me. I got 3 nice airplane models for Christmas. One of them is a 1/72 scale P-40 Alutian Tiger and I want to build it for the SHOW YOUR TEETH campaign. Is there any age limit to join a campaign? I hope not.
I am glad dad found this place. It is way cool and I know I will have fun here.

thank you everyone,
LilAviator aka Hunter

Hi Hunter and a big welcome to Armorama

How old are you?

I think I can talk for Jean-Luc, and everyone else for that matter, age has no bearing on entry to campaigns. On the contrary it is great to see youngsters taking up the hobby and you will get all the encouragement you need. There campaigns run for youngsters as well, so check out the campaigns thread. Welcome aboard

Hi LilAviator!

Welcome to Armorama! I'm very happy you joined the group!
To answer your question about the "Teeth" Campaign: NO! there is of course no age limit for the Campaigns... but you will have to build a model of a Flight Simulator first! Like the one Nigel (Lampie) posted in the Official "Show Your Teeth" thread! :-)
Looking forward to see your first model on Armorama!

what a good idea.If Rector junior doesnt feel up to scratch building the trainer Im sure you'll be more than happy to maufacture the parts and mail them over to North Carolina for him to assemble and finish off
Happy Modelling (lemonade of course!

Hi everybody!
Thank you for the welcomes.

Holdfast, I am 11 years old. I'm glad that I can join the show your teeth campaign! I'll do that right now. I will also check out the ones for kids if my dad will get off the computer long enough for me to look around.

Tedmamere, you won't get to see my first model. It was covered in gluey fingerprints and my puppy kind of chewed on one of the wings. Don't worry though because you will all get to see my second model since I will enter it in the campaign. :-)

Lampie, dad said if Tedmamere sent us the parts for the trainer that he would help me build it but only if you sent enough paint and decals to finish the project. ha ha ha :-) and thank you for the lemonade.

Dad is going to take a picture of my Alutian Tiger before I start to build it so we can post a picture for the campaign.

Thank you everybody
