Hello from Southern California

[dwhitford]

Hello,
I'm from Southern California, U.S.A. I am an artist (sculptor & painter) & building
figure kits (& other type of models) is something that occupies a lot of my time.
Most of the figures are on the larger end of the scale- 1/24 to 1/4 scale (around
75mm to 450mm for the metric people...). Some of the figures that I have sculpted
have become resin kits. I like a variety of subject matter from both historical &
sci-fi/fantasy/movie, etc. Favorite categories include- pinups, Old West, American
Civil War & World War II. I have visited the forum often, but never posted. I'll be
posting one of my latest projects shortly.

Thanks.

-David

Welcome to the Planet, David! Southern California, eh? Are you familiar with SCAHMS, the Southern California Area Historical Miniatures Society (http://scahms.org/)? They may be in your backyard, as they say.

Prost!
Brad
