Male born April 18, 1960 in Edmonton Alberta, Canada. Studied to be artist. Father introduced me to hobby, use to love browsing in the model shops with him as a kid. Won a contest at local drug store with a Natulis sub model at 6. Like most kids I did the hobby till girls and cars ect.(partying) took over. Twenty years later in '94 I got back into the hobby building the Airfix 1/72 scale LM kit as I had always had an intrest in the space program and caught a fever to have some cool display models for my desk. Then the avalanche begins. Stayed with space stuff for a few years evolved into early rockets, early german rocket planes and jets, early century series jets then switched to armour cause of all the cool ageing and weathering that one can apply to the Tank.
This past fall I entered in a local IPMS show in Vancouver & won a first place for a Tamiya Panther G steel wheeled version, 2nd place for a Dragon Panther A (early) third place for a 1/72 scale A7V and two honourable mentions.
You can see these two in the Gallery
If anyone is reading this that works in film or TV and you need a model maker, e-mail me I may be available and I would love to maybe do some work for you. I work in film already but as a scencic painter.
