I started building scale models when I was around 8 years old. I was influenced by my older cousin and an uncle who built models. I remember seeing their finished models of planes and being immediately drawn into the hobby. I built all kinds of models.. aircraft, armour, sci-fi, automobiles. I discovered I enjoy building things. My assembly & finishing skills slowly improved until I started college in the early '90's. Then I just lost interest in building and put my unfinished and collected kits in storage, planning to return to the hobby one day.

Fast forward to 2020 and I dive back into scale modelling hard. I refreshed all my tools & supplies and bought an airbrush & compressor. The airbrush was a game changer. I dug out a partially built Tamiya T-34 Model 1943 and finished it. Social media was a huge help in getting up to speed with current techniques and improving my skills in a relatively short time. Seeing my completed T-34 got me hooked into the hobby again.

My current primary interest is 1/35 WW2 armour.
