About ModelKitBench

Built his first Gundam kit at 11 and never stopped. 15 years of Gunpla, 10 years of airbrushing, and a backlog that will outlive him. Works in IT to fund the hobby. Tests every kit the same way: a full build with no aftermarket parts, a part-fit scorecard, and a seam line honesty check. Judged local Gunpla competitions twice.
