I think you've found a nice 'niche', as your models surely must have a good demand. I don't know of course, but I would think that such modeling is fairly rare. I'm thinking that model airplane building has probably fallen away from the popularity that it once had, but maybe I'm wrong in that respect. Surely I don't see the kind of model availability that there once was.
Even in my teen years, I was somewhat in the minority of model builders at the time. Most kids who were into 'modeling' were into cars. While not necessarily easier to build, I think more people could relate to them better; and Lord knows, they were a lot easier to display than model airplanes, as the latter just wouldn't fit well on a shelf (I would hang mine from the ceiling of my bedroom, where my mother would it find it absolutely necessary to knock one or two down on occasion as she dusted.
Today, I'm thinking anyone who might want a model of their helo or fixed-wing would be sort of hard-pressed to find one, especially if they want the exact model of a craft that they own or are taking lessons on.
Keep up the great work,
