Hello gang,
Once again waiting for glue to dry... Decide to play a game with you guys and waste some precious web space. So here it goes!
Game Rule: Answer a question the last person posted and come up with a question for the next person to reply. There must not be more than one person to answer the same question. You can ask any type of question from modeling habit to technique to collection to perference...anything. However, all questions MUST BE MODEL RELATED!
Hopefully we all can learn more about models after we play this game.
Since I started this damn thread I'm gonna go first!
