Gino P Quintiliani shows what has happened to some of the models Armorama's members and others have sent to the troops in Iraq. I think you will all agree this is a worthy cause.

It's good to actually put a face to the name. I know we saw a picture back when you where a CPT, but it was at a distance. I pictured you a little bit shorter!!! Just kidding sir, I will drop and give you twenty!

Thanks for the update Gino.

I believe the biplane bomber is an American Martin MB-2 from the 1920s.

Good looking models taking the conditions under which you are building into account.

I have an interesting question. Do you prefer to model what you see around you all the time (Abrams tanks, Bradleys, etc.), or are you more into other periods like WW II ?
