Customizing has always been something I live, breathe and dream constantIy, ever since I started playing with action figures at the age of 7 ~ 8, I have a tendency to altering original-out-of-the-box stuff into something of my own, from changing arms n legs with O-ringed Joes in the 80s, to customizing with 1:35 in the 90s, and 1:6 in the last 10 years, I guess you can say that I have been customizing all my life with toys and action figures.

Though I am 1:6 by trade, 1:18 is where my passion lies, and there are so much that can be done in 1:18, more cost effective and scale wise manageable... Most importantly, brings me back to my childhood when I bugged my mom to buy me Joes and watch Joes with my Dad on TV.

1:18 is the perfect scale to me, for making cost effective and manageable dioramas with sizable troops and vehicles.

While in the beginning back in 2014, inspired by the many talents on FB groups like "KEEP IT 100", G.I.Joe Community & TTF 118, I started experimenting with small vehicles such as bikes and humvees, and have tried my hands on armored troops with exokeletons.

Moving onward, I look forward to producing more uniquely hand-custom one-and-only protoypes of original designed characters as well as MECHs, larger vehicles and operation base and combat dioramas.
