Im building kits since I was 11 or 12.
The first kits were Polish 1/144 simple kits of the PZL P.37B bomber. They were cheap and were everywhere to get.
Then I build KP and Šmer kits. And I started to build complex paper models with my grandpa.
Now im 52 and I collect more than build the kits. But the modeling helped me over very hard times in my life. Im thankfull to have this great hobby every day.
