Hello from the Nodic land of Sweden

Post by tiking »

My name is Charles King and live in Sweden. Started modelling back in 2002 doing modern soft-skins military in 1/35. Mostly modern armor or post -modern stuff. I love big vehicles and not much of a tank person. But I will do a tank as I have diorama that will need a tank to complete the scene.

I just started 1/24 back in 2010. Born in 1969,I have been interested in modeling since I was 12; though there was other interest that took priority at the time. Not until recent,in 2002 that my interest was rekindled. While browsing the Internet, I came across a gallery of beautiful military models that completely saturated my taste buds for modeling once again.So the rest is history.

I do/did, 'not-so-seen' models and those out of the ordinary. I do not like doing the same thing, so I tend to look for obscure inspirations to work from. This way, the model or dio becomes different. I try to follow my own way of doing things, also adding other experiences from other modelers, by adding my own mix.

So I hope to learn from the lot of you and gain more experience from watching your builds.

:welcome: Charles. It was a visit to Malmo and a model show there that kick started me back into the hobby last year.

I live up in Skellefteå. 130km north of Umeå if that town is more familiar.
