Some of you know me, some not so much. Let me fill those of you in on me so you have a better grasp of my kind of crazy.
Currently I am 55 with two grown boys, 31 and 23. My oldest is developmentally delayed, so we have to give him 24/7 care in all aspects of his life. He will never be able to function on his own for the simplist of things in life, he just doesn't understand. I have been married to the worlds most perfect women, sorry gents I got the one and only, for 32 years. We live within view of the Grand Teton Mtns. in Idaho. I'm about 2 hrs from Yellowstone. God's country!!
 I did not take this shot, but it is exactly the same as my backyard view. Amazing.
I model just about anything. I started out in my youth with just cars as they have always been a passion of mine. Later in 2014 when I got back into the hobby I build one again and then decided I liked WWII aircraft and started down that road as well. This has been the bulk of my building. One day I decided to try armor as well and I was hooked, now I build those as well. I like sci-fi so you can see where this is going. There is not much I won't build. I even like to do Metal Earth kits from time to time. I'll post up some of my work for you to see, cars are not the only thing I love to model. I think building these other types of kits has made me a far better builder overall. I would not change a thing.
Some still in progress....
More on this one soon...
And this one will be coming back soon as well...
As you can see I have a taste for many things. I look forward to bringing you along as I ride the plastic wave.

Awesome stuff Brandon makes the rest of us look like we aren't trying!! I'm gunna suggest it gets crisp there in the winter but it is a killer view. Need to add a truck to the collection! Any tips you can give on the Mandalorian would be gratefully accepted; I have 1 to do.

This being the Bandai kit it does not need any glue, but I used extra thin anyway except on joints so I could pose it. Second you have decals or stickers to choose from when building, I chose paint and a couple decals only. The kit does not need paint, but I fully painted the whole kit with Vallejo and Alclad. There was no clean up needed and it will build in a few hours. Or you can take a weekend like I did and paint it then assemble. This kit will make the worst of us look good. |
