Hello everyone,

My name is Tom and I live in the spuddy state of Idaho, though I'm originally from Baltimore. I was formerly a USMC M1A1 Tank Commander, but I am now a full-time university student. I started building models as a young child, but I'm being generous with the idea... it was more like attacking plastic (and myself) with glue and enamel paints. I built models quite a bit until I graduated high school, but picked the hobby up for a few short periods afterwards. 

Recently, I was actually able to sit down and produce some built kits for the first time in years. In the past I stuck to 1:72 and 1:48 aircraft, but am now taken with 1:35 armor kits.

Anyways, I'm happy to be here and hope to positively contribute whenever possible. 

Thanks!
