Welcome
I have been modelling since I was six years old, building kits by Airfix, Tamiya, Italeri, Esci, Fujimi, Hasegawa, Heller, Matchbox, and Aurora into my teenage years.
I returned to the hobby in my 30s, with modern jets for a few years. Now in my third "chapter" after retirement, I'm building aircraft and land-based subjects, both in kit form and scratch-built.
I regularly take part in contests and shows, having achieved several placements and medals over the years. I'm a member of IPMS Canada and IPMS Toronto.
Commissions
I can also build your dream kit or diorama on commission. These are ideal for collectors who don't have the time or resources, or for commemorative occasions, unique hand-crafted gifts, etc.
Prices can vary depending on the complexity and time required to assemble and paint a subject, as well as the cost of the kit of course. Builds are quoted and priced based on number of labour hours plus the cost of the kit.
