My tiny collection
Here is a 10 years of searching, saving up for, finding in places unexpected, gifts from family and friends, sleepless nights before the bidding ends on ebay,...you get the drift. Every model has a story to tell and there is none I would ever want to part with. Lots of friendships forged through this wonderful hobby.

RE: My tiny collection
You give a run for modelart! both in collection and neat display.

And I agree with you that every model has a story or a sentiment attached to it. I have created an excell sheet of the history of all the models I have so we can cherish them on weekends......

RE: My tiny collection
Thanks for the kind words Janardhan. The guys at Modelart Bombay were good friends and I am still in touch with them even though the shop has closed down many months ago. I would also get a call from them to tell me about the newest arrivals. Thanks to them, I could add many which otherwise would not be easy to find later since only a few pieces were ordered every time.
No Excel for me cause I am very lazy in that matter. But everything is kind of documented in the head and I think I remember every detail of almost all models.

RE: My tiny collection
Hey, this excel sheet idea is kind of cool, never hit me......I think I would do it if only my damn computer would work!!!!
Diablo, I am kind of getting the feeling that you have much more in your collection than shown in the above pics!!!

My favorite post on SMC "I wait for the day when you go ballistic while buying models after you get your first job. I think I would be seeing KV & the Modelart guys bursting fire crackers all day." (quote Winston)

Besides a few commercial jets and a few more 1:64 cars, this is all of my collection. If Minichamps, Kyosho, Solido and Welly were available, there would definitely a few more to show.

RE: My tiny collection
Diablo- Did I hear 'Tiny collection'?? Thats very modest of youWink.

This is one helluva collection. The cars must be needing a lot of space. The jet looks all ready for the kill with the missiles.

Great work.
