Been a fan of FSM for years, but it’s my first time in the community. I’m from the Philippines, building models since I was 8 (I think), got interested when I saw my Dad’s Revell USS Enterprise CV-65 (the best 1:720 kit, they call it), started with Duco cement, got hooked with those 1:72 Matchbox aircraft (don’t have them anymore), but really got serious on armor and figures. First kits in serious mode were Tamiya’s 1:35 Tiger 1 (motorized beast, the one that came in a box with a painting on top) and German Machinegun team set. Right now doing the DML boogie, mostly figures. What can I say? The industry’s growing, but the budget’s a little tight. I remember when Pactra Authenticolor was sold at P4.50 a bottle, right in Lil’s Maranaw (the IPMS Phils. guys know what I’m talking about). Anyway, happy modelling guys!
