Great interviews. I find these very interesting and I appreciate the effort to do these. Kindred spirits Stuart - grew up as an Airforce kid and have a huge love of airplanes. Great stuff.
Thanks,
John

You are the master of the paintbrush.

Great interviews. Norman you have quite the diversity. Stuart I feel the same way about 1/72 scale. I probably build more 48th then you but always seem to gravitate back to 72nd

Thanks Gents and thank you Bruce for putting that together! I really appreciate the comments and compliments!

John - Why Albanian? :hmm: I found a really little good decal sheet that sparked it off - I really like old early Migs and the Albanian sheet had them all. I also work with a few Albanians so...

TJ - Yeah it's a funny draw - I guess it's just what I'm used to.

Great interview Stuart! I am also an Air Force brat that grew up around aircraft all the time. I miss those days of traveling through the base alongside the flightline and seeing all the aircraft all lined up. That's why I love aircraft. As for the scale, I've always loved 1/72 scale. I love the consistency seeing all the planes have and their relative sizes and such. The fact that my armor is also in 1/72 scale makes it that much more enjoyable maintaining the same scale!

Looking forward to seeing more projects coming from your bench!
