Hello to all of you!
Posted by SU-37_Berkut on Thursday, August 19, 2010 8:07 PM

I started modeling when I was i kid and drifted away to other things, like many of us do, I started again about 8 years ago and have now become a modeler who buys far to many kits and build far to few. Right now I have over 450 kits Tamiya, Hasegawa, Dragon, Italeri, Fujimi, Classic Air Frames, Academy, Eduard, Trumpeter, korpo, most being Tamiya, Hasegawa, Academy or Trumpeter. 70 % 48th and the rest in 32nd.

I'm a sucker for detail so if it has etch or resin I will have probably spent more on the aftermarket then the model it's self.

My areas of interest are Luftwaffe WWII Soviet WWII and Allied WWII, Modern American and Russian mainly.

I'm a Professional Photographer so if I ever get to serious building I will post a few pics. Now that I have bored you I hope to see you on the board. Travel

Thanks for the welcome deafpanzer  and kind words on the photo, can not take all the credit started out with a good image and added a little photoshop magic, but yes lots of work in the lighting if you can nail that then its a smooth job to finish it.

And I am always open to any photographic help I can give.

Looks good can not wait for the end result, will check back for updats!

What amazes me with so many modelers here is; I have 12 feet of work bence but it's never enough when I see others getting along on 4 or 5.
