Besides military, what else does one build. For myself, i like to build Dragrace cars. This one is a old Revell 1/16 scale Jungle Jim funny car. Ton of detail went into this right down to the valve stems and lug nuts.

Besides military modeling, HO railroading takes up time, plus I make my own beer

Life is good

I used to do a lil HO RR modeling but had no space here to do it so I leave it at my Nanas house.

Hello Joe, in response to your post, sir, When I was younger(alot younger) I used to build models of all types, but now I concentrate mainly on militaria, with an occasional Gladiator figure when I can find them...Speaking of Gladiators, does anyone know of any companies where I can find a good figure kit? Years ago they were easy to find, but seem to be getting harder...

other than military models i build kits of aliens and predators(i.e movie monsters) and also the games workshop lord of the rings range, cool little white metal figurines.

other than modelling my main hobbies are bass guitar and music in general, reading, internet etc....and of course the essential beer and young women! :-)

regards
