My name is Greg and I live in the outskirts of L.A.
Hobbies have included diecast and real cars. Presently own a 88 Saleen Mustang. Back about 35 years ago I used to love to build Tamiya armour models. The highlight of my youth was a Panther tank that I detailed very well including melting parts to simulate damage. Eventually the tank met the awesome firepower of the M80 and was never seen again.
I have always had a great interest in WW2 especially the German-Russian conflict. As I was collecting diecast cars I came across some Dragon Armour which got me into thinking about building models again.
I am still in the process of collecting supplies and actually found this website via a bokk on military model building. I am not sure if I want to build 1/72 or 1/35 scale. As I would like to have samples of different armour it seems cheaper to do 1/72 but the detail of 1/35 is incredible. Any feedback on this question would be welcomed.
Anyway thanks for the info I have gathered from this site all ready. I look forward to learning more.
