I started modelling in the 70's with my Dad building Airfix aircraft kits. The memory of my Dad and I building and painting a Avro Lancaster on the kitchen table will always be with me. I then found a friend who enjoyed building models, and between us I think we built the entire range of 1/72 Airfix kits. Then one Xmas my Dad bought me a Tamiya 1/35 tank and that opened my eyes to a whole new world.
