Publicity manager Colin Rae, 46, said: "The whole hobby attracts a whole raft of people. It's an interesting demographic.
"A lot of people are interested as a child, we get a lot of people who take early retirement who take it up. "It's a very relaxing hobby. I find painting models very therapeutic."
