Newly returning to modeling, I intended to start with airplanes, which I love, but decided to begin with armor. So, what I have thus far:
1/35 Armor (mostly modern)
1/48 Aircraft and Helicopter (modern)
1/32 Aircraft (modern)
1/20 Race Car
1/48 & 1/32 Real Space

Let's see now; God knows, but I'll try and figure.
(131) sets of 1/35th figures
(8) helicopters 1/35th
(5) 1/35th scale boats
(5) 1/16th scale figures
(2) 1/72nd scale ships
(4) 1/32nd scale aircraft
(3) 1/35th scale aircraft
(2) 1/350th scale ships
(1) bust
(!) ? scale dragon
(about 10) 0f the old monster kits re-released by Polar lights
And of course a few 1/35th tanks, soft skins and dio support pieces like farm wagons ect. And the cabinet of unfinished kit bashed space stuff/sci/fi.Basically I do 1/35th ving. and dio's but if it catches my eye, anything.

I mostly build 1/35 WWII subjects which makes up 95% of my stash. But I have dabbled, 4 builds so far, into 1/72 and 1/48 Scale Wingy Thingy. And I just noticed that there is a 1/35 scale Helo in my stash too
I tried a boat build, I'm gonna stay away from them
and I built a 1/24 Scale Woody Wagon for a sick cousin

Most of my stash are 1:35 Armour & Softskins, but also have 1:72 aircrafts.
Lacking space I had to sell 1:48 Phantoms F-4 collection, some old 1:24 Monogram 30's Cars.
Also build 1:72 Helis awhile ago.
All 1:72's Aircraft are Modern Soviet Aircraft, Sukhois,Tupolevs,Antonovs,etc...
1:35's are WW2 German, some Russian subjects too, Modern Russian tanks & APC's, US tanks, Strykers.
Wanted to start my LAV & IDF tanks too but no more space at the time, I'll have to shrink my stash first.

Yeah....
I like old racecars for one: If it had an engine and raced between 1920 and 1970, I wanna build it, although I also have a GP Mercedes from 1914 in my stash.
I also like Golden Age aircraft, there was great stuff back in the 20's and 30's. Again, I have something older, a WWI Felixstowe flying boat I got for Christmas.
After that I like old classic hot rods, and I'm working up to a scratch built drop tank lakester, once I get all the stuff I need together. Then there are just basic classics like the Academy Morgan 3 Wheeler I'm slowly getting done right now.
I also build a tall ship now and then. Built Nelson's HMS Victory last year, was that ever a job!
Guess I spread myself around, but I see I have plenty of good company.

Armor
Helicopters
Planes
Ships
Don't do many car models. These were what I built for a few years during the interum between military kits.

I like the following
1/35 WWII Armor and 1/48 WWII aircraft..
though I do have some stuff in other scales and a few trucks and cars in my stash..
I also tend to enjoy Soft skins and tank destroyers in armor and twin engine and night fighter aircraft.
