Why I do it
First for me it is escapism - new word
I can escape to my world. No phone, computer, job, kids. Although my wife, Cheryl asks Why is the TV on?
It starts with buying the kit and seeing it finished in your head.
I am the designer, bodyman, mechanic, and I do the upholstery.
Next I think after the work-a-day world you should do something with your hands
Modelling also opens up new worlds for me - research, photograhy, attention to detail.
This carrys forward to my other worlds.
It is social - like this web forum, communicating world wide.
Also with my modelling friends, we get together the third Monday of the month
There are about eleven of us, who just sit around and talk about models
This month the meeting is Mon. May 18 and the theme is "drag racing"
I love cars
And it is fun, just do it.
