my name is 3,1415
I have 30 years old and I´m addict in plastic models
it started like this,
I was 9 years old
and someday my brother appeared at home with a kit
a little kit, from Airfix, you know
quite simple, 1/72
small
few pieces
what harm could it do?
and he gave me the kit
My parents were not told about it
I assembled the kit
it was so cool
was a mind blowing, you know like a trip
and that hooked me at the first time
but that was worse at the time, I always need more
I always asked my parents to a kit
I asked kit for my brithday,
I aked kit for childs day,
I asked kits for Xmas
and my parents never understood this, it was something that...
but to me it was my addiction
so I started to buy some kits that comes in parts in magazines
and I assemble
and I was sniffing the glue, that was give some mind blowing, it was cool...
I assemble with anyway
paiting with gouache, don´t have money to buy professional paints...
but at that time I got a job
so it comes to be serius
I bought an airbrush
bought a compressor
so started to paint
no, no, don´t used professional paints
painted with Acrilex paint
assemble dioramas and used oregano to make the grass
but I got a better job
top salary
and with more money in hands, it come to be
worse
because
1/48, 1/72 already things don´t satisfy me anymore, I needed more
so I join
to 1/32, yes
no, so I bought Tamiya Paint
started to use Woodland Scenics grass, Harder & Steeenbeck airbrush so was when
my downfall began
yes, I lost my family
lost my girlfriend
almost got kicked out of home, cos I spend all my money with this, thinking only in this
but one day I decide to stop to assemble
I can´t got that score that I wanted
some kits missing rivets
the fuselage was 5mm short than the real aircraft
these things bother me
the kits were not accurate as I would like that they must to be
so I stop to build, and stated to collecting boxes
yes, I bought kits
spent, I spent much money per month
spent, spent much money per month
spent a large amount
last month I have to sell my car to pay the Credit Card bill
and this month I've got to
sell my body to get some money
yes, yes, but you know
I would like to improve
its something that
makes me better
and I would like to confess to you that I´m for 5 days clean
are 5 days that I don´t enter in ebay and don´t bought any kit
it´s the addiction you know
it´s plastic models
I would like to someday
get off this
