The Orrible Truth

You never know when the modelling bug will get you.I think the first model i built was a Spitfire not sure what the scale was?, the glueing and the painting was complete within one hour it was then promptly launched out of my bedroom window. After i tried to rebuild it i  was hooked.American hot rods, tanks, boats, planes anything i could afford was purchased and built with great speed.
By the time i was 16 the girl and booze thing had started and i found better things to be doing with my money and time.
The Modern Day
About five years ago whilst out shopping with the good lady i saw a Spitfire model kit by Airfix and a few minutes later i was again hooked (that spitfire has a lot to answer for lol ).
Most of my work has been in the 1/35th scale 1st and 2nd World War has been the main theme. Recently i got involved with a project in 28mm scale it was a small ruined outpost, i really enjoyed the challenge of working in a smaller scale and a lot of restrictions around uniforms and colors were lifted. I managed to finish a few pieces, please feel free to have a look around and leave a comment.
Many thanks
Neil
