I'm over 55 and live in west Auckland, New Zealand & a member of IPMS Auckland.
I'm a long time modeller, began with 1/72 Aircraft, moved on to 1/35 AFV's, then went back to 1/72 Aircraft and then up in scale to 1/48 & 1/32... all of WW2 era vintage. I've started to move back into the realm of "targets" again, but this time in 1/48, to match the bulk of my stash -and provide some diorama material.

Why did I move up in scale from 1/72?... well, the old eyes aren't getting any better with age! And the fingers seem a lot fatter now, too!

I also make SF kits and some figure kits... so long as they are are ...well..."glamorous"
