For the past 1 year ++. After so much up & down, disappointment and failure. I learned so much from every failure of mine, positively accepting insults, comments, suggestions, advices. And i keep researching, read, study, watch some youtube videos. Finally i have something that i can call a real “hobby”. Been learning so much from this forum. Will keep learning and improving

Welcome! Glad you joined. Sounds like you have BBA - Bounce Back Ability - it is great both for this hobby and as a life skill.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)
