Right now, I'm trying to get back at my Tamiya 360 Modena Spyder and Fujimi EM 246 GTS (original issue) and clear them off the bench.
But to show how eclectic my building has become lately, I've also got a Mini Cooper Works (LH drive), Ducati 916 Senna, and a 56 Chevy Del Ray also sitting on the bench. Now to get back and get something finished!!

I know exactly how that is; my taste is
too eclectic and I have
way too much modeler's ADD short-circuiting my brain
I just finished a Revell Ferrari Superamerica for a magazine review (nice kit actually), a race-weathered Fujimi GT40 Mk I '69 LeMans winner for my book, I'm working on an AMT custom '57 Chrysler 300 w/a Winfield-style faded paintjob for the book, a Monogram Cobra 427 S/C, original AMT Corvair Astro I w/the trick opening cockpit, Donohue's winning IROC Porsche from Daytona, I've primed/prepped a Profil 24 Jaguar E Type Lightweight low-drag coupe for our LeMans palooza next month (to be built during the race), I have promised to build a '57 Chevy Black Widow (AAM w/some trick custom parts another ACME member has made) this year as well, and I'm also supposed to build an FXX w/some friends this year. And help w/body parts and paint on a one-off 1/12 IROC Porsche for Rennsport Reunion III in November. Whew. It's killing me that I haven't built the new Fujimi, Mazda MX-5, Porsche Cayman S and the F430 Challenge car that I started last summer
Some builders whine that there aren't enough good models coming out. I whine that there are
too many good ones for me to keep up with!
