Happy, outgoing film lover, one time film extra, former martial artist (hope to go back again soon!), who also loves music, conjuring tricks and chocolate...but don't feed me after midnight...!
As a child, I couldn't afford to buy the vehicles for the Star Wars figures - so I used to build my own out of stiff cardboard! I didn't stop there - I also attempted to make a stormtrooper helmet and child sized R2 unit (wasn't happy with either of them), and made a Star Destroyer that was as close to scale for a small die cast Millenium Falcon as I could manage...!!! It was huge. The greeblies I ended up drawing on by hand - it took me around two days just to draw the details on...!!! Sadly, I don't seem to have any photos of it...but I do recall that every single one of my friends wanted one...!!
It now looks like I might have revived that passion for building things from scratch again, after having lain dormant for so many years...
My love of Star Wars brought me here!
