Hello,
Thank you for providing a place for us modelers to share their work and ideas.

A little about my approach to scale model building. I build what I like based mostly on what's new and available so I can't really say that I build in one category or scale for that matter. My background is in advertising and design for over 30 years so you will see that I focus a lot of my time in the presentation. I use traditional methods in painting using oils and lacquers more often than bottled effects. I will be posting a build soon. Thanks again for allowing me to share some of my work.

Some of my work:

Jon

Your attention to detail and your ability to accomplish what you show here is exemplary. Extremely well done models. I think I might learn a few things.

Love the car-door Tiffie; rather rare subject that. And the German floatplane leaves one gobsmacked.

I am located in Spokane WA. Not much of a model scene here. Been trying to change that. Hoping this site will help me get connected. I build everyday so I'm always working on one and planning another.
