Getting into a new hobby
Posted by mbertolini on Monday, February 16, 2015 11:43 AM

I've been building models for years, mostly of the brick variety that my wife wants to break me of, and I've moved back into a hobby I developed decades ago when I built models with my father in our basement.  He preferred model cars and trucks (he once worked for Chevy and was always fascinated by cars) while my preference has been in military equipment (my preferences in military history come to fruition here).  I'm getting back into the hobby with relatively simple aircraft before moving into the armors that I'm really interested in.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I'm resuming my passion by starting with really basic aircraft and working my way up to the armors that truly intrigue me.
