Darko

Darko Mladenovic I am 31 years old and live in Belgrade, Serbia. I've been modeling for about 15 years, on and off. While I'm happy to build anything, my interests lie primarily in 1/48 scale aircraft. I concentrate on WW2 subjects, although I'm also interested in WW1, early Jet Age and commercial aviation. Since my early days I have build over 150 models but also had a break for about 7 years without modeling. Before my break I was attending all the modeling contests in Serbia and won a quiet few prizes, I was also a referee on modeling competitions in Serbia. Currently I am working on my diploma at the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering at the University of Belgrade at the department of Air Transport and Traffic Engineering. Darko
