Yeah, that's exactly what I need to do. Thing is, I'd look at the finished product and know I compromised. To me, it's all meaningless if you compromise. Even though I've not finished a model in years, I look a the work I actually do manage to finish (sub-assemblies and so on) and if I can walk up on a bit of work I did and still love it six weeks after I built it, I feel satisfied. I'm calm. If I don't live up to my own silly expectations, I'm anxious.
Others here manage to finish lots of stuff I really envy, stuff I'd be happy to display. Maybe I'm just a slow worker. If I still have any eyesight when I retire, I'm gonna dive head-first into this hobby...till then...
