Hello
I am a born-again modeller and very happy to be a part of this great company.

I started building models around the age of 12-13 and stopped around 18.
I…re-started almost 30 years later, during the lockdowns.

I mainly deal with cars and (more recently) 1:24 and 1:25 scale dioramas.
I know I'm not the best modeler, but I'm definitely one of the… happiest!
Every time I build a model, I have a smile on my face.
(It's my… psychotherapy).

I try not to get angry and upset when something doesn't go my way.
I do this hobby to relax and have fun, not to get stressed and depressed.

Have fun, be healthy, build models and… abide!

P.S. Please excuse my poor English. (I hope they are… worse than the models I build)! 🙂
