As I was surrounded by all sort of people building and painting models in scale, I could find some moments of rest and peace looking him at work. A task for solitary patience, all this ‘miniaturising’ imagination, this sort of living those great things which are present in all tiny bits. Carlos’ corner was undoubtedly the most preserved and warm but also the most unfathomable; I know very little about military vehicles and AFVs but I found a sort of peace in all those miniatures ‘wrapped around the fingers’, these minuscule details that require calmness and slowness.
Tireless worker, disciplined, organized and reliable, I must point out his honesty, no compromises; He being honest and true to the way he lives, to the way he works. After a while I could return to my own table, full of photographs and sheets of paper, the telephone ringing, still thinking about his outstanding models: a real challenge for a lazy mind. A thorough description needs a whole-hearted love.

These could have been my own words.
