Getting back into the hobby. Did model building as a youth but never seriously. I see from this site that I've got a lot to learn.

Main interest currently are:
1. Iconic cars - pre 80's that are iconic or unusual.
2. Vintage vehicles, planes and machines
3. Any industrial/heavy/unusual equipment
3. Getting into figures and miniatures
4. Also doing wooden kits

Long term goals:

1. Get good at painting and weathering
2. Be able to create quality dioramas
3. Be able to do figures well
4. Be able to fabricate and modify pieces

Here is an album of the models I've so far built: scalemates.com/profi..bums&album=46676
