Re: Re: Bad habits...

I'm too anal about specifics. I spend too much money breaking up kits. Though it does wonders for details and specifics it sure does a job on the wallet. It doesn't compare to some other hobbies I had. I lie to myself and try to make the comparisons but I know that's not the point.

Beyond that my wife says the table is too messy. I say "it's an organized mess". In a sense it is. It may be a mess to the untrained eye but I know everything that's going on and exactly where everything is. Better still I know if someones been messing with my table. At least thats how it is for me.

i used to work on too many kits at at time, i remember one point a few years back where i had 8 models on the go at the same time, trouble is you end up not making progress on any of them, then you just get demoralised and pissed off with them.. But once a eventually finished them all, i spent all last summer working on one kit at a time and got 3 kits done (porsche 956, Mercedes C9 and Porsche 911GT1) in 3months! For me thats really fast!
Plus they're the 3 best models ive ever made IMHO, so one at a time is def. the way forward.
