As a kid it was always aircraft.


On seeing a finished Italeri S-100 I bought that as my first kit on returning to the hobby.


Thoroughly enjoyed that and bought a couple of large scale submarine kits, but recently have acquired several large scale aircraft kits.


My problem is having the time to work on them.

I don't have a favourite as such, so I've ticked the lot....I hope this doesn't sound blasé, but I'll have a go at anything, any scale. Sometimes it goes tit's up and ends up as a wreck on a dio. - or in the bin! I just enjoy model making. The kit can be a rough as old boots or fall together, it's all part of the fun.


Variety is the spice of life and all that........

I went for sci-fi and aircraft.


Although to be honest the sci-fi is mainly figures and the military aircraft by preference is WWII, I like the look of modern fast jets but I don't like building them.


I do venture into other areas as a child I used to build ships, but my interests have changed a bit over the years.

Armour for me. I appear to get away with a few mistakes which can be corrected easier than aircraft.

I like all types of modelling but I'll be honest I'm not as good as I want to be.


First has to be WW2 Aircraft and then possibly armour of the same era but I'm still learning this one even though I've built and thrown out more tanks etc but now I'm slowly learning new skills ( from here if the truth be known ( Peter Patrick, Phil , Laurie, Ken, Jim etc you know who you are and I'm slowly getting into figures thanks to Alan


I even have looked into sci if but my skills are not up to this yet. ( sorry Si


Scratch building is a new part to me and I'm really starting to get to grips with this and still although slow progress I'm getting there ( study ref pics etc and try to reproduce to scale


I will admit I do have to say Ww2 aircraft and post war really get my juices flowing


A piston engine or radial has character and scope to detail


( hope I can produce all that I say heh)


Thanks to this forum I've got more into this hobby and more out of it ( and a lighter wallet)


Must not buy more kits!!!

I love them all warts and all.


Variety is the spice of life. But ships n boats don't really interest me.I only have one and it's the titanic which as sank to the bottom of my stash and I can't see my levels of enthusiasm rising anytime soon. It's been there since 2008 almost 8 years
