I'm just a builder!!!!!!!!!! If I like it I build it. I've got planes from WW1 to date, tanks from just preWW2 to date, ships from just preWW2 to date, and even (GULP) some pretty sporty cars. And oh yea a Babylon 5 fighter

Thanks for so many responses but some of you have not posted your links. It's no point if you mention it and don't have a link that I can use.

I have been a fan of modern armor since before I entered the Army over 20 years ago. I have been building models for over 30 years as well.

Hi guys,

Count me in, I'm a fan of all things modern, armour & softskins (mainly British and USMC), aircraft (British & USN) & ships (RN & aircraft carriers in general).

I haven't got a website yet, and I'm just putting the finishing touches on a Revell Land Rover 109, going to be finished in a Brit green & black camo, probably using the markings from the kit.

Anyone know of any good references for British Army Landies in book or web format.

Happy modelling

Ant Phillips

i like ww2 and modern although I never build them just sitting in a pile of all era's I do like modern stuff as it's bigger and badder so you get more kit to the pound (apart from academys tiger that is!)

Modern all the way here. You can call me "cutting-edge" or even "bleeding-edge modern."

I think every time period has it's own appeal, but I am mostly a modern fan. I am building a M1A2 Abrams right now and about 90% of my kits in the closet are still in service, I just need more time to build them all.
