I've spent a lot in the past, but have set limits for myself now. I'm going from $0 (
) - $50 a month. Keep in mind that I stop purchasing any new kits, and hope not to this year... unless it's something I really wanted but couldn't get my hands on.. models like Revell's 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396, Toyota AE86 Trueno 2door, 1970's Chevy Van w/ Trailer to haul around my Camaro (when completed), and 1975 Olds Cutlass Promo. Although I excluded some kits I 'want,' I'll build and finish what I already have.
Lately, my purchases only been supplies.. ex. drill bits, cleaning brushes, desoldering braid, #11 blades, styrene sheets/tubes, paints and other modeling tools and supplies. I've been on the modeling ball for the past several weeks, but it's going to come to a short stall now that I'll be spending an extra 4-6 hours afterschool everyday including weekends. I hope it won't slow me down too much, but I'll be learning some computer language called "C."
