  1. I like the two tribute builds best. I can't remember when I built a model last. With hand tremors and small motor skills lacking I don't think I could build anything now. I had a lot of fun building models when I was in high school and College. Nice job!

  2. Nice job on the builds. I used to build models when I was younger but then I'd play with them and smash them up. :) You must have a lot of patience to build these with such detail.

  3. I never built any as a kid, I did have a cousin that was totally into it, and probably still is. We are the same age. I collected cards he built models. Nice job on the builds, and that is a bunch you must have been busy!

  4. Great job on all of these models! I'm especially fond of the Army builds. That Scud Launcher is AWESOME!

  5. Really nice work! To be able to have that level of skill in multiple disciplines is not common. 1/76 is a fun scale. I built my first in tribute to my clubs president who passed away, it was his preferred scale.
