    Which are your plans for the rest of the year?

    In fact...when I do plans, they never work


    Anyway, here are mine


    First is build some little plane, I need to recuperate my "mojo".


    Second is finish my "how to/natural vegetation". My apologies to all...I never plan to do a longer stop than this one


    Third is build the four seasons challenge!


    I suppose I'm nearly winter or on Christmas period after all this work...So I want to finish my Renault FT 1/16.


    And if the travel to Telford "works", I want to start a SPECIAL model! My first option is a ship 1/32, I have been it in mind for so long...


    Well...these are my plans for the next six months....


    You have plans??


    Or just let the river flow...?

      I would like to finish 2 more models, the Ferrari I'm doing atm and the Subaru imprezza Japan.


      Ideally it would be 3 but I might actually have some work to do for the rest of the year after being quiet for a long time.


      I need to learn to actually dry fit things, set up to prime nearly everything together, get better at bit needing to fill and sand bodies which adds weeks to builds and then to try to spray similar colours together do that things move along much faster.


      Lastly... Baby. One on the way, hoping for a boy!

                  My plans... Build a new man cave and find which of the boxes my stash and tools are in!


                  Have a few mad ideas to try catch up on a few GBs...once the aforementioned man cave is ready.

                          Yes I use to do everything at lunatic speed before I gave up this working for a living lark.


                          It was a first class idea now I have time to do things at my new status speed.

                          Yes loads of it. Pays dividends as you get to see a lot of pictures. What I do is to put for instance in Google search Apache Helicopter or Apache helicopter cockpit. Then up comes at the top of the search hundreds of pictures. Nice thing I find is you get all the military stuff in all the different theatres of war and that is very helpful for effects etc. Plus also for small detail such as tow ropes spades on a Landrover, all the bits not on the model.
