The Tamiya Fiat 500 1/24 scale kit is probably one of the best way to start. Tamiya makes some of the best kits in the industry...what am I saying, they are the benchmark with which all others are judged. You will get a great kit with little or no flash, lots of detailed parts and clear cut instructions on how to build it.<br /><br />This build will be straight forward. No big modifications, but I will probably add a few extra details, just to keep things interesting. Tamiya kits are more expensive than others, but they are worth every penny. Before starting anything, I will do some research on the subject. The internet gives us access to all the information we will ever need. Flickr is a great way to find some images amongst the many sources out there. I haven't even decided on the color yet!<br /><br />So if you want to start building and want to know with what, this is a great way to go. Well made kit, not too big and easy enough for any beginner. Remember, keep it simple.<br /><br />Gerry<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/basdelaine/IMG_0201.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/basdelaine/IMG_0201.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/basdelaine/IMG_0202.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/basdelaine/IMG_0202.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5079540749035782956-2184879317148763951?l=model500.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Gerry Lauzonnoreply@blogger.com2
