I've recently picked back up on a hobby that took up most of my free time as a young one, scale models. I had hundreds of them built and even made it into a small business while still in school.

Here is my most recent model, 8-inch Gundam Wing:


I picked up one other Gundam model with over 200 pieces. This one had 120. I also picked up two fiber optic models, a Star Destroyer and Enterprise model.

Here's my next model project, TNG Enterprise:


Currently I'm working on these when I should be sleeping.

Anyone else a scale modeler? Post some of your work if you are!

...or else...

I build 1:35 scale Armour models. Here's just a small selection from my collection;





















I also have a YouTube channel and a Blog dedicated to my model making.

I built the Fibre Optic Deep Space 9 years ago, unfortunately, it's buried somewhere in a cupboard at the moment!

Damn i used to love to build these a lot before internet.

I had 2x KA-50 "blackshark" gunship models (i am sort of a big fan of that helicopter)

Then i has some either american or soviet or israeli interceptor jets. I also had a T-24 tank
I dont know where they went tho

I also liked to build stuff out of cardboard. i remember building a few alien fighters from "independence day" movie I also had an imperial star destroyer and an executor class superstardestroyer.

I dont know where they went either. My list of interests completley changed after i got internet.


dont hate people who rip you off,cheat and get away with it, learn from them
