About

Im a 21 year old student from The Netherlands. When I was very young I got my first scale model kit from my dad, a 1/72 F-16 by Revell. In the following years I continued this beautiful hobby but for some reason stopped when I was about 10.
In early 2007 I began again after a break of about 8 years. I bought a small 1/72 kit, and since then I'm hooked to the hobby. By this time I focus on the 1/35 scale and barely build 1/72 models. I prefer Modern armor and aircraft used after WWII.

    Great job Boris! I have this kit in my stash along with the photo-etch for the vehicle and rocket pods. I hope it turns out half as good as yours!
