Here in Florida, I just worry about the humidity more than the temp. If I worried about the temp I would go nuts. Down here it can't decide if it's winter, spring or summer. Just as the pool is getting warm enough to swim in last week, we get some freaky cold front and it dips into the 30's-40's Sunday night. Now it's getting hot again...let's see pool is about 80 F , yep...just about time for another cold front...

I try and do most of my painting on a warm sunny day.
In winter time we have an open fire which i start to warm up the house before painting.
Also i try and warm the body of the model first so that its not cold by leaving it in the sun.

I feel you man cause the weather here is in the thirties. I still paint like some have said, paint quickly and bring it inside immediately. I was hoping to get ready for RC season also.
