There as soooooo many options ... I met a black-n-white photography professor (25 years developing his skills). Asked him if he was gonna get into color. He said, What? and spend another 25 years trying to figure color out?
All of my old models that had been doped (Testors & Aerogloss) ended up popping the paper covering on the wings in less than 20 years. I used to really enjoy papering/silking/doping, but it was affecting my lungs in a very bad way. Later I would learn that I had been born with a birth defect that impaired the gas exchange in the interstitial material in my lungs. I haven't been back to sanding/dusting/painting since then. I miss the fun, but not the illness the fun caused. On the other hand, I do enjoy covering with various iron-on coverings, so it isn't so bad.
