Been modeling since I was 8. My father got me involved and it’s been my number one hobby all this time. I’am 60 now and have begun to pull away from 1/72 (to small) 1/32nd “looks” real good now! I’ve been working in the hobby field for almost 30 years.
As a artist and designer for hobby magazines an illustrator for books and even a stint as an assistant manager at a hobby shop. Love to build everything, aviation and armor being top now.
