Building on a Budget Models

I'm Thomas, a scale model builder who (mostly) builds on a budget!

I set up BOAB Models to help share my scale model builds and to demonstrate some of the methods and materials which I use.

Building on a Budget means that I try to devise ways to help people progress in the hobby without spending a lot of money. Here you will find unboxings, reviews, builds, tips, tricks, history and walkarounds!

I don't have an airbrush, a hobby room and it's rare that I use expensive aftermarket sets.

Many of my Tips and Tricks videos show how you can use everyday items found at home to help your modelling.

Thanks for reading and happy modelling!
