Hey all,
My name is Leslie Kwok, from Vancouver, Canada. I used to build sci-fi models competitively (Gundams in particular) when I was young in and around Asia. Then there's work and kids took priority which stalled my love for the hobby for about 10 years. Now with the kids getting older, I can now find pockets of time to build once again.
Attached was one of my build 15 years ago that got me some merits back in the days.
My scratch built PMX-003 The-O 2 graphic by Mr. Makoto Kobayashi
Will take a more recent pics of it in the sci-fi section soon!

Welcome aboard Leslie and glad to have you here! If the following builds that you have yet to post are anything like that one you just posted here then we are ALL in for a good treat. A couple of fellas that you'll get along with very well here is a guy named mz3 and Real G (Neal). Both of these fellas are involved in Gundam building and would more than be glad to check out your work as would the rest of the crew. You're in a good place Les.

Welcome aboard, Leslie. I don't do scary figures but I can appreciate a good one when I see it. Nice!

Glad you found us Leslie, always need a big robot to protect our wingy things and targets...armor LOL. You would have a hard time finding a more diverse, and welcoming group, you should fit right in with the rest of us.

Welcome aboard Les! We can always use more variety of subjects here, and it looks like you have an answer for that!

G'day mate welcome to MSC. Can't say I've ever developed a passion for Gundam, but I know good work when I see it.

Leslie,
I am terribly late to the welcoming party, but hello and a warm welcome! And especially to a fan of Makoto Kobayashi and The O! Full scratch build - yowza! I would LOVE to see photos of your projects, both past and present.

Welcome aboard, Leslie! I’m looking forward to seeing your work and learning from you….especially the Gundam stuff, which I’ve never ventured into, but my curiosity has been getting the better of me in.
