ChrisConsidering that I honestly believe that for me Tamiya produce some of the most well engineered kits especially for someone like me who at times struggles with complex instruction manuals since I didn't always do well with large pockets of information all in one go. For someone like me who started kits back last year, it is somewhat now a healthy obsession which gives me alot to focus on especially when at the moment my life is rather stop, start and go.
I made this kit several months ago, I know without evidence of my build I can't make you see the truth in my words but I will produce images when I actually get round to producing pictures of it.
My pieces aren't going to turn heads, all I hope is that you enjoy the pieces that I finish, weathering and effects are something that over time I will muster, majority of my builds I hand paint, sometimes going over with more then 1 layer.
I love our NHS and to make a model with quite huge significance considering I was making an ambulance it just was inevitable that I was going to pick up this kit. Tamiya really do give you a great start-up to get back into modelling. I love their detail, their ease of use of their instructions, the little extras at times that accompany the kits - whether you get an extra figure to build. I JUST LOVE THEM!
People all around us are given rather obsessive and expensive forms of hobbying Expensive gaming computers, consoles, mobile phones and so on. What really is better about those items than crafting something with your own hands and your own skill!
ChrisTrust me Martin, if there is one thing that I will never quit, its Model making. Why? Because it has got my Fathers spirit inside of me which he passed to me at a time when he needed it. Modelling is more then just a hobby for me, it is a therapy and it sure as hell is becoming more and more real!

ChrisPlus Martin, I will give you plenty of notice when I am looking at a certain kit, although considering I have well over 50 plus kits which came from my Father along with all of his modelling tools and extras I have got plenty to keep myself going for quite some time!
