I got into models when I was about 5, and because my Dad built them as well. He stopped building them (probably long before he introduced me to them), and I ended up with his modest stash, some of which I still have some today. Not many complete kits, I think just a truck and a trailer somewhere, but was a great push into the hobby.

Dad of course only built cars and trucks, which is what I started out building. I then found my way to aircraft, had a ceiling covered with them....my own little air battle going on above me. Then ventured into the armor realm.

Now I build pretty much everything, which would be why my own stash has taken on a life of itself!
