MissChief Models is a traditional model hobby and craft shop, selling plastic model kits and other craft items.
This is a brand new venture, so I will be adding items as I go along, speaking with customers and listening to their feedback. My background is as a military veteran, 12 years in the British army as a cavalry trooper 17th/21st Lancers,and also previously as a chef with the Parachute Regiment.
I’ve worked around the world on oil refineries and also been a long distance lorry driver. Worked in the local University before leaving to work with Blind Veterans.
Decided to take the plunge and open the shop, as I have been a keen model maker myself for many years, and missed visiting a local model shop.
I also help run the Scunthorpe IPMS UK model club, which has been running since 2013.
