About the author:

Nestor Espinoza's journey into scale modeling began at the age of six with a Christmas gift from his godmother, mistakenly believed to be a puzzle. This first model, assembled with his father's help, ignited a lifelong passion. Nestor's enthusiasm grew through the influence of a neighbor, Mr. Luis Jáuregui, an exceptional modeler and mentor.

Throughout his life, Nestor found a sense of community and inspiration among fellow modelers, forming lasting friendships and deep connections. His fascination with the detailed stories behind each model, especially in motorsports, led him to explore icons like Ayrton Senna, Enzo Ferrari, and Juan Manuel Fangio.

A significant turning point came when Nestor collaborated with Carlos Cuesta of AMMO by Mig Jiménez to create a book on motorsports modeling. This project inspired the development of the Cobra Motor Paint line. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, Nestor and his wife relocated to the United States, bringing only their essentials and his models.

In the U.S., Nestor found support at SprayGunner, a family business passionate about scale models. Their support allowed him to showcase his work at IPMS USA NATIONALS and other scale-model shows and connect with other enthusiasts. This project, which helped Nestor through challenging times, is a testament to his perseverance and dedication.

Nestor Espinoza's story is one of passion, community, and the joy of creating meaningful art through scale modeling. His work continues to inspire and motivate fellow modelers to pursue their dreams.
