I have been actively building model kits since I was 17. My experience in building almost all type of kits - aircrafts, ships, AFVs, automobiles to spacecrafts has benefited me greatly when I entered 1/6th action figure customizing.
My first figure was Dragon’s WW2 GI Dave. I must say 1/6th action figures is a totally different enjoyment altogether – highly due to because it is dynamic vs static and the scale is larger and attention to detail is greater.
Ever since then, I have been customizing figures extensively and improving my techniques to create more and more realistic figures. My interest is mainly in WW2 German Military and is now expanding to WW2 US and modern military. I have been a member with The Sixth Division since early 2003.
