My name is Ed and I live in Bradyville, Tennessee. I've been a modeler for most of my life. I was Googling M35 Gun trucks and found a link that led me to this site. After looking around, I decided there are a lot of great builds and builders here so I joined.
I like to research and build 1/25 scale tractor-trailers (mainly logging, mining, oilfield and sugar cane haulers) along with 1/35 scale military subjects, particularly WWII Sherman's and Vietnam gun trucks, Sheridan's and M48A3's. I also have some modern armor.
In all fairness, I'm more of a model starter as I complete very few builds that I start. I love researching the subject in order to make it as realistic and/or believable as possible. Collecting pictures and reference information is what I tend to do the best.
Thank you for allowing me to join.

Hey Ed, welcome aboard! I look forward to getting to know you, and hopefully see you maybe make it past the finish line on a couple of those models you mentioned… to be honest, the hobby is what enjoyment you get out of it along the way, and that includes those that never make it to conclusion. I share your interest in the research part being a major part of the hobby, and I love the continual learning as part of that.
Enjoy the forum!
