Welcome aboard Chief! from a retired GMC I have the hobby three ways 1.) Model Railroads in HO, 2.) WW2 Armor and dioramas in 1/35 scale and 3.) WW2 Naval and Army aviation in 1/48, all in a very small spare bed room = 9x12'
Great photos and I know as that is the hobby and profession that takes in all the world.
The best,
