Group44registry Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Greetings all, Rick here, from Rockledge FL on our Space Coast. Member of IPMS Space Coast. I work primarily in 1/43 competition cars both for fun and as a professional. I also occasionally build 1/48 aircraft with a new interest in race planes. 1/43 and 1/48 are close enough not to look out of place in my display case. I am a US Marine, no longer on active duty but still standing watch. I've been building models since I was 6 or 7, so it has been 50 years officially. I am a contest modeler, took a 1st place in Competition Vehicles 1/32 or smaller at the 2012 Nats in Orlando and took a 3rd in the same category at this years Nats. I have a couple of new builds in progress for the '15 and '16 Nats. I am, for the most part, retired from the family 1/1 scale auto restoration / race prep business. I did mostly British (MG, Triumph, Jaguar, Lotus) with the occasional old school Ferrari or Maseratii. I still work on a few client restorations and race preparations, but only when I feel like it. LOL. Looking forward to the ebb & flow of the forums, Cheers, Rick Ostman Edited October 1, 2014 by Group44registry
