I have been building plastic models for 50 years and have never built a WW I aircraft. Most of what I have built is 1/32 scale USN and USMC WW II and modern aircraft. I also build modern USMC armor. Recently I received 2 Wing Nut Wings aircraft in a trade and was blown away by the attention to detail. The instructions and overall quality of these kits is incredible. This is a new adventure for me and I look forward to visiting this website for guidance and inspiration.
I am married, have 4 grown children and our first grandson is 7 months old. My wife and I live on a small ranch on the backside of USMC Base Camp Pendleton. I served as a Warrant Officer in the Marine Corps Reseve. (Engineers and Light Armored Infantry) but my eyes are always looking to the sky.
6 years ago a buddy and I started the Temecula Valley Model Club. We have over 100 members and meet once a month. Every October we host a big BBQ at the ranch. It’s a swap meet, beer tasting, watching college football (Go Ducks) and a chance to see what everyone is working on. We are on Facebook.
That’s about it, I wish you all, Happy Modeling and Peace
