Just wait until you have a full time career, a house, kids and a wife that thinks you should show her more attention than model cars!!!!:cya:

At least you get summer holidays!!!

Some people never know when they've got it so good...:eek7:

Still I used to think the same thing when I was at school.. :evillol:

I dont think you can- not if you wanna do well in school, anyway! Car modelling is so addictive i used to get carried away and end up not doing any schoolwork. So as a result i didnt do any modelling for like 2 years while i was doing my a levels (apart from a bit last christmas). But now ive finished school for good:thefinger you get loads of free time . . . so ive managed to finish more models in the last 2 months than i have in the last 2 years!
But arent you on your summer break at the moment, anyway?

I have way too much homework. I never have time excpet like an hour on the weekends if I'm lucky.:frown:

Quit school and just do models. :smile: :tongue:

Seriously though, some of us are "midnight modelers". Not fun, but it`s the only way.:frown:

Insomnia at night, and daydreaming during the day... the life of a true modeler :bigthumb:

The way I do it is, Wake up do your stuff, NOT MODELS CAUSE YOUR NOT AWAKE ENUF, goto school, get home do your homework, all of it, then if you arent doin n e thing else, Model until your little heart is content. I dunno bout you, but schools first, i cant really start a career just building models..

No, I think I'll go to school get a good education, and a good job, then model like I want to.:biggrin:

mon - fri = school :mad:
fri - sun = modeling :biggrin:

I'm on vacation from college since July 15th to September 22nd, so I got lots of time....:thefinger :biggrin:

:iagree:
School is a bunch of :bs:

I am glad I don't have to go to school :tongue: ! I get about five hours a day during the week and the whole weekend which I can work on my models. The most I spend is about an hour and a lot of times, I don't even touch my models.:rolleyes:

Like Mr. Happy said, be thankful school is the only thing infringing on your modeling time. I don't have kids yet, but work, wife, and man of the house responsibilities are already a handful.

I am a midnight modeler. 90% of my work gets done between 11pm and 3am. I'm surprisingly alert this late. College was good for something (grin).

mon - fri = school + homework
fri-sun = homework + modeling yay ;)

School started Aug 7 for me, so inbetween 8am-4pm im not home when i get home im pretty much on the phone with or at my girl friends house, so from now till we got a brake, im done with modeling:(

Yea i agree Girlfriend that away alot of time from my free time. but they are there for something:iceslolan

I work on my models on school nights. In the winter, I usually find it hard to work on them because i go snowboarding everyday. (i live 5 mins from a ski area, so its close)

You're lucky, 5 min? Dang. Do you live that far up in the mountains?:confused:

:werd:

I'd rather be smoking.........some tires :sly: :grinyes:

I do models when I have nothing else to do, which is more often then you think. I don't do any maths homework anymore, I only do assignments. Speaking of assignments I have 5 due in the next 4 weeks :banghead:

my life exactly.

when i was in grade school i would clean parts while i studied and did homework. that way when the weekend came around i had plently of stuff to paint and glue. if you can do this and maybe set aside 30 minutes a night to paint as well you would be suprised at how much modelling you can get done. now im in auto-racing mechanic school and i like to believe modelling is homework! when i got out of school years ago i actually found that the extra time hurt my modelling because i was impatient. school gives paint and things proper time to dry. just make a good schedule. any student should have 30 minutes a night of free time.

I'm going to have the same problem :( school for me starts tomarrow and my new found hobby will have to be slowed :shakehead :banghead:

For me, i just model after finishing my homework, if im not lazy.... :p
