I started modeling as a kid back in the 1960's. After graduation from college, I got busy with family and career and stopped building. About 4 years ago I started again with my youngest son who showed an interest. I build mostly 1/48 and 1/72 scale WWII aircraft, but I build a little armor too (mostly 1/35 scale).

This is me at the George S. Patton Tank Museum at Fort Knox, Kentucky:

Hi Rian Jones,

Welcome to the Big A ! the world famous website for modelling!

Living in San Diego... Lucky you, I would like to go there to visit the US Naval Museum in San Diego Bay (the aircraft carrier USS Midway)

Welcome to armorama!

I thought for a second there that you were going to say that you built a 1:1 scale of the patton tank.
