I used to build models all the time when I was a kid and through high school.  I've done pretty much everything at one point.  I've done cars, armor, aircraft, space ships, mecha, and HO scale trains.  After a long hiatus I decided to build some models that I had been dragging around with me that I never started and one that I half-finished, plus I picked up some new ones.  I will of course be hopping on the bandwagon and starting with a Colonial Viper that I nabbed the other day.  First step is going to be building myself a spray booth next week to use with the airbrush.

I posted in the screen name thread, it's in reference to THX-1138.  I've done mostly more modern military builds.  Phantoms, Tomcats, Cobras, MIGs, and Mirages.  The oldest things I built that I can remember were a Sherman and Panzer and a Huey.  I've done tons of Dougram, Gundam, and Macross mecha though.  I still have quite a few, but they're all Gundams.  I still have one half-finished one to complete and another one that should be fun because it comes with enough weaponry to be kitted out 4 different ways depending on what role it's trying to fufill.  I take that back, the oldest model I ever did was an old and very small scale Sopwith Camel.  Just came to me.
