I grew up building models in scales ranging from 1/76 upwards then sold all of my stash in the mid-1990's to facilitate a house move. However, a chance purchase on Bay in 2006 introduced me to the world of 1/144 and the collection has been steadily growing ever since. My main area of interest is in the aircraft and AFVs of WW2 but my collection does also comprise a number of pre- and post-war builds, including several aircraft which served with the Australian Armed Forces.

I am one of the founding members of the Kampfgruppe144 forum and, if the counter is correct, the largest contributor of posts on the site, though a certain well-known UK-based modeller and regular author of articles on Scale Aviation Modeller International (SAMI) isn't far behind me!
