My Other Hobby

I'm a little kid who never grew up. I still build plastic airplane models. These are shots of the models at our monthly club contest today. They're the main reason I have a macro lens & ring light. We hosted the 2015 International Modeler's Society National Convention & Contest. There were about 2000 models entered all of this kind of quality. Makes it hard for judges to choose.

The 1st ones aren't. The guy that built the ship thinks guys that build airplanes are sissies. Only real men build ships.

Wow! Good work. Keep it up. My dad used ti build miniature stage sets.
I wish I could claim credit for building either of these. I'm lucky if I get 2 models built in a year.

I have a coffee cup with "I may be getting older but, I refuse to grow up" on it.

Excellent! I build airplanes too, but mine have radios in them and they fly.
