About Me

Meet Momo my mascot!

Hi! My name is Kate but I also go quite often by the usernames Muntoe and Munty. I'm 26 years old and live in the US. Although I'm a fan of Japanese culture I also enjoy hiking, playing with my dog Missile, and drawing. A few of my favorites series include Yotsubato!, Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Rozen Maiden, and Cowboy Bebop. Recently I've also gotten into Game of Thrones.

The purpose of this blog is to convey my love of garage kits to a bigger audience as well as showcase my finished creations. I became interested in garage kits in late 2009 and have held an interest in Japanese culture since I was a teenager. I also love PVC figures and frequent MFC for updates but garage kits are my true love :) I will also cover games and other things I'm interested in from time to time so please bear with me!

Finally, why the name Plum Workshop? I figured I would create a sort of rhyme in Japanese (すもも工房, or Sumomo Koubou) and when I was in high school I used to draw a little character named Momo all the time. The wonderful Butcherer helped reinvent Momo for me, check her stuff out if you have the time!
