Modelling for me has become one of a lifeline. I have been struggling in myself through the sudden loss of my Father earlier this year and having quite a struggle in my mental health. I am only announcing this because to get those around to see just how crucial modelling has become to me and my day to day life. I don't just love modelling I am doing it because it reminds me of my Father. Despite having had very small contact with my Dad during my life the final 6 months were the most critical. I can never thank him enough for putting a spark back into my passion for the hobby, he is the reason why I got back into it and it has helped me ease the loss at times. But with regards to the firm ScaleModelShop I cannot think of a better company whos purpose is to be there for beginner and expert modellers and give them access to a large range of products and resources. Another positive was my Dad introduced me to this website and I have been so happy that I found this website out as there are loads to satisfy the beginner or expert builder. I was speaking to a very patient and friendly voice in the form of John and he was so helpful to me when it came to a little issue online. I got my order and he helped me prepare it as I struggled to access the checkout on the website. Afterwards he explained to me that it was a very good step that I was taking when it came to doing modelling as part of my mental health barrier. It requires a huge amount of patience but I just want to do more and more and because there are a certain number of skills that I want to learn all about. But for now I am just lucky to have the opportunity to access such a well thought out website with a great group of people working to ensure the best possible customer service! THANK YOU!
