hooked on th s wonderfu hobby. cont nued to bu d mode s throughout the years, weav ng sports,
schoo , work and fam y around my bench t me. L ke many of you bu t mode s n a var ety of sty es; cars,
p anes, boats and spacecraft, but the day that found armour mode s my wor d changed forever. or me
armour mode ng was the perfect partner to my nterest n h story; more so than the p anes and sh ps,
armour opened my mag nat on and a owed me to express my creat ve s de. Add ng a tt e d rt co ected
from the backyard onto the surfaces of the mode he ped convey a sense of use and purpose. Now t to d a
story. L tt e d d rea se, or even care at the t me, that was do ng th s th ng that we now ca weather ng?

of ght ng and props, we can do the same w th our mode s though weather ng. We are the d rector – the
