enjoyed a meal with him, seen his very impressive operation and corresponded with him. Short take: he's a class act. He's helped me make better choices on models based on his in-depth knowledge and willingness to share information. While he is a professional and very fine craftsman of highly detailed and, appropriately, expensive models, he is always willing to compliment and provide constructive feedback to the efforts of amateurs. He has my highest respect and I'd be proud and privileged to offer him any support possible.
