Well another new guy here.
Well I have been into models since of course a kid.
I did a few tanks.
I think armor is my favorite kits next to sci fi stuff.
But most all of my sci fi kits are also armor!

So about the same thing.
I didn't build to much for about 4 years when I joined the military for Desert Storm. I was in the Army and Stationed at 10th Mountain, New York.
I live in California now.
I came home and got married and the X-wife hated me spending our money on little toy soldiers and plastic junk.......

So after I got rid of her....

ouch.... Divorce hurts.
I started in with mostly gaming and so building sci fi stuff was a big part of it for me.
This was about 4 years ago around 2000.
I started by getting into 40K as a way of gaming and playing again and getting into stuff again.
I really like to build and I have no real skills other than pure love of the models.
No scholl and no art or talent that I know of.
But I love to do it.
When I got up and building and creating stuff I entered a contest back in 2001 summer and I actually won.
It was a build a new vehicle desing for the 40K game.
I built this. (the 6 wheeler is what won)

Anyways since then I have started to paint better and convert and create better.
I have taken alot more interest in my hobby.
I still do this in my free time like most of you and I am re married as of last week and she loves to see what I am building and incourages me to build stuff and to enter or go to shows etc.
And in our new house I am getting a hobby room!
How cool is that. Ya shes a keeper.
