To scale modeling I got back after 16 years break. It was my solution to the presence of screens problem (eight hours in work and few hours after work). I'm highly interested in aircraft (especially from the Axis Powers - also known as Rome–Berlin–Tokyo Axis).
Currently, I'm a father of two boys (George 5, Simon 3) and husband of Emily. I'm working as a statistician in one of the banks. Last year I've finished my PHD from International Trade on Faculty of Economic Sciences at the University of Warsaw. Therefore I have only a few hours (if I am lucky enough) per week to work on my models.
Had no time to post this article when it actually happens and now is the time. The paint job almost in all cases made by children.
