Hello from Canada - crackerjazz - 08-28-2010
Hello everyone, my name is Joseph. I've been a big fan of Star Wars ever since I saw it on the big screen ages ago, and I can still watch it over and over on DVD with my 5-year old without getting tired of it. Scale model building takes a toll on your eyes and I'm no exception. In fact I've developed something strange - Anisometropia - being nearsighted in one eye and farsighted in the other. So usually I keep the farsighted eye closed when I'm working on details. Lately I've decided to keep to the big scale and not punish myself anymore. But then it only makes me want to add in more tiny details!
Thanks for a very nice site - I love the reference photos!

Welcome, Joseph. I'm glad you like what you see here! We're trying to build a better site for our fellow modelers, and not just a name like other sites do. As you can see, we strive to address as many issues here that concern our members, so they can achieve their modeling dreams. I hope you'll become a regular member here, as we do have a small dedicated group of members that are die-hard fans that also contribute as much as possible to our hobby, which is also our passion.
