Time is the BIG thing involved, as for the skills...... well they come with practice!

I've been building models since I was 7, ( I bought my first kit, a 1:72 scale Spitfire from Airfix - packaged in a plastic bag!) and have been at it ever since. And I've found that a lot of the skills from building models, transfer over to building full size items, furniture for example, so I don't see why they shouldn't transfer back.

You probably have all the skills you need, you just need practice!

In haven't touched a model for months now but I have tons to do should I rekindle the interest. Its no surprize the bulk of my models are 1:700 scale ships, but I also have 1:72 scale aircraft and armor.

On my living room entertainment center I have 1:72 models of a Hurricane, Spitfire, Lancaster, Typhoon and Blenheim. I have a nice Heller 1:400 scale model of the Hood I'd like to tackle, theres even room to add detail.
