About warreni
Greetings! I have been modeling for about 45 years on and off and have just started learning about weathering my AFVs etc. Started when I was about 3 or 4 and got to a peak of production in the late seventies with a Airfix or Matchbox kit every day or so at times. Most of those have gone but when I look back at the ones I have got I can see so many problems with them. :) I think I have come on a bit since then.. Had a huge break in the middle of about 20 years where all I seemed to do was buy kits.
