Hello! I've been building model kits off and on for many years. My favorite subjects are Real Space, armor, The Great War, and the odd anime piece.

I've always had an interest in building models, but neither had the time nor money to build the skills necessary to make a good attempt. Nowadays, I have a little more money and NO time, but I get by! I have several kits from my revival era (2010-2014) that are mostly tanks, mostly complete, and several kits today I'm working on. I currently paint using Tamiya and Model Master rattle cans, but I'd like to move on to using an airbrush in the very near future, and invest in a ventilated spray booth and compressor with a reserve tank.

I enjoy looking at articles, videos, and forum posts about other peoples builds, how they achieved the look they were going for. There is always more to learn!

While time these days is limited (I can usually find time to build, but devoting time to painting is the problem), I am currently trying to complete several kits at once in an effort to reduce the stash count (only to build it back up!).
