The Breaker's Yard
My blogs
| Introduction | My earliest memory is watching "Fireball XL5". My first model was "Fireball XL5". And that was how it started. Grew up with Gerry Anderson shows, splitting off to all manner of sci-fi from all over the world. Also big fan of Japanese SF, mostly Godzilla and other Toho titles. Basically anything that has miniatures and practical effects. Left college with a degree in Industrial Design. Some random work all round until finding dream job of making engineering models for the last 27 years. Am now retired and still building models! |
