Stu's New Hobby Site

Welcome...

This website was created so I could share both my Norske Løve kit bashing and Le Gros Ventre scratch building experiences. When possible, construction updates are added monthly. I very much enjoy hearing from my many world-wide website visitors so please feel free to say hello through my guestbook.

Construction updates are placed in the next section in "yellow" followed by a boxed "Website Links" menu section that can be used to access over 800 detailed construction pictures. Please try out all the site links and enjoy :)
