Hey everyone, My names Patrick. I found this site through Armorama, I saw Dickies cutaway T-62 and thought it was the beez knees. A little bit about me; Im from the good ole US of A, i live out in the country and love to camp and hunt and drink and just have fun. Im currently serving my nation In Afghanistan and should be home in about 2 months (cant wait!). I've been building models since i was 13 or 14 (Im 23 now) but didnt get really serious untill about 2 years ago. I build mostly Armor, but recently broke into 1/48 scale aircraft as well, mostly ww2 fighters. I apologize for not having any photos of my work, but ill see if my wife can take some and email them to me. Thanks guys!

Thanks guys, i'll see if i can get some pics here soon, but just to give you an idea, i build mostly ww2 german armor, i love it, so many different vehicles, configurations, i dont think you could build them all. I've built a couple shermans and I've built one T-34/85 with a full interior. Ive also got an m-41 bulldog and a gulf war M-60. Other than that just miscellaneous German armor, fighters, and some field guns. On the bench right now is Revells B-29 (almost done). Waiting for me at home is a commando jeep, pzkpfw 38t with some PE details and a full interior plus engine (gonna try my first cutaway) and Trumpeters BDRM-2 with voyager PE, also going to attempt a cutaway. I just got a new house before i left too, so im going to be constructing my shop, I cant wait, thats gonna be fun, Bad thing is, most of my paints went bad so ill have to get more and the're not cheap, and i have to get an air compressor, so ill probably end up spending quite a bit of cash, but ill have a good time doing it. Have a good day guys.
