Does anyone who is reading this, remember what there 1st model was (to you at the time it was the best build model ever). but time has faded that idea of the best built model ever, but the memory of the fun of building something on your own will always be there. in this hobby there are stages of progression starting with the beginner and working your way through several stages till we become an expert modeler. every modeler I have EVER met has slowly made his or her way through this progression. that is until I met MR. Brian Brown. when he 1st came to the club meeting his stuff was typical of that beginners stage. but within the next yr he has leaped trough the progression of this hobby so fast he must have skipped a few stages (it didn't hurt him any either) he has even been published in fine scale modeler with a tip for making realistic sandbags. soon he will have some photos of his work in there as well. Brian has sent a shockwave through our little club. with his youthful love of this hobby he reminds all us old dudes why we got into the hobby in the 1st place. somewhere along the way it started to be an obsession for some(me rick E) THEN TO SEE HIM IN HIS YOUTHFUL EXCITEMENT AND JOY. BRINGS US ALL BACK to the reality that it is just for fun and enjoyment. to me he is our club and all it represents and I am glad to call Brain brown my friend and teacher of why we are in this club. now for the most impressive part BRAIN IS ONLY 13 FOLKS
SO TO CLOSE THIS I WOULD LIKE TO THANK BRAIN FOR BEING THE 4 STATES MODELER OF THE YEAR his growth his advancement in the hobby his youthful love of this hobby is the reason he is spotlighted. Congratulations my friend.

Some of Brian's work.
