Gonzo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hi All !! I felt a reintroduction was in order. It has been a few years since I have posted on a regular basis, or at all for that matter. I have a few mini friends I met here with whom I have stayed in touch, but I really want to get back into the forum as much as I can. For those who don't know me, or may not remember here are a few things old and new about me... Divorced 53 years old Live in Central Indiana Sales director for an auto parts manufacturer as my "day job" Got into the hobby in 2011 Started a miniature business in 2013 that is really starting to grow now that I spend some time with it Had a girlfriend, didn't have a girlfriend, had another girlfriend, didn't have another girlfriend...you get the idea I am a grandfather now I have lost some weight and changed my physical appearance (hair, facial hair, tattoos). Note...this is not a midlife crisis or a cry for help...LOL I posted an updated picture. I seem have a lot more grey...hmmm I am a true "mini-holic" with several out of production kits in my collection and a few UFO's (unfinished objects) I primarily do pop culture builds (tv, movies, etc.), but will create just about anything if my mind is set (pictures to follow) I am looking forward to rekindling old friendships and gaining new ones It's good to be back!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathieB Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hey, Greg! Welcome back. Sounds like an eventful life. It's good to hear your mini business is growing. Do you have any shows scheduled near Atlanta? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Welcome home, Greg! {{{HUG!!!}}} You cannot imagine how much you have been missed around here. Are you still announcing the games on the radio? What are you building now? Of course, we all know that grandbabies are the very best minis of all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shareb Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Hi Greg! Nice to meet you! I've been around a couple of years now but I've really only joined in on the forum for about a year. It's so lovely to be surrounded by such amazing and clever people! What sort of car parts do you sell? Would LOVE to see some of your pop culture minis! We're huge pop culture fans here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will do my best to get down there in March for the Bishop Show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Thank you all. It is good to be back. I will post a couple of pictures of builds I am working on or have finished shortly. I am trying to figure out my next project. Looks like it may be the Mayberry Courthouse from the "Andy Griffith Show." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
