Nah.... I'm just in a silly mood and decided to have a little fun. Work's been gettin' on my nerves so I needed a little stress release.

I started building kits since i was like 9 or 10, it was a 32 coupe, me and my cousin painted it with a blue permanent marker, then i was hooked, I built lots of lowriders and domestics, then I got into the import scene(back in 97-98, before imports were cool) and lost interest in kits cause all i would see is revell and as you all know revell makes mostly domestics. Then i found this Forum and found that there were companies making my beloved imports and got hooked once again.

Sorry for the long post.

I started building in 1970, when I was 5 years old. My folks had just moved me to a new area where their weren't many kids. My mother always built ship models (she still turns out incredible models, many are in museums) and I loved cars so she picked-up a Corvette model one day and helped me build it to see if I took after her. The rest is history! I recently found an exact duplicate of the MPC 1970 Corvette model she got me started with, I'm considering whether or not to build it....

My dad came home with 2 model kits, one for me and one for my brother, my brother built a dodge ram and I built a corvette stingray concept, both were hand painted and built with crazy glue, that was about 7 years ago. I was a little mad cuz my car looked like a pice of crap, so I didnt build any models for about a year, then I got started agian, the rest aint important

i built a 57 chevy when I was 5. I pained everything red except the chrome parts that came with it. My dad painted it though, I just Dranched it with Testors clear Coat about 5 years later when i found it under my bed. Im gonna take some pics of it right now...

I had a friend who did model planes when i was 13 yrs old. I had done some modelling before that, in the form of Mini4wd, but not scale models. Started with planes, but never really liked it. Then i tried cars. My first car was the Tamiya R32, built straight from the box, bare plastic, unpainted. Then also tried bikes, quite like it. Then also Patlabor, Gundam etc.........long story......
Lost quite a bit of interest as a lot of the cars i like, in bodykits and racing trim are not available as kits. Resin maybe, but i am not going to spend >$100 for a kit. Then i found some websites on custom car modelling and AF. Then i am addicted to making modified cars.

When I was little, my Dads friends son gave me a model kit, me and my dad built it together, and I was hooked.

Notice the excessive use of :spam: which isn't shown? :finger:
