I hear you guys on the air brush set up. I usually get 4 or 5 models to the point of needing to be airbrushed and then do them all at once, once I am in an airbrushing mood. I just finished two A/C and a tank last weekend because they were all needing a final coat of future and some paint. I had just been putting of getting out the airbrush and having to clean it. Now with those three off the table ( a 1/48 Gee Bee, a 1/48 Shinden and a 1/72 scale Tiger) I am free to go to the closet and pick out three new boxes of fresh plastic. One is for sure Italeri’s FA-18E in 1/48 but I haven’t decided on the other two. I think I’ll finish the M-113 I started a couple years ago.
I agree with most of you guys. To prevent the bordom I usually have 6 or maybe 8 models going at one time. By doing it this way I don’t have a chance to become bored. I may also put away all models and concetrate on updating or some kind of improvent project for the shop.
Hey Dana,
I find myself putting the model away when it comes time to fill and sand seams. Oh how I hate it. I’ll watch an aviation movie or read a book on aircraft and all of a sudden, I’m back to it. My problem is that I used to work at Central Hobbies here in town and I never got a paycheck due to buying models. LOL. Point is, I will never be short of models to put aside due to a lack of motivation so I might as well keep at it.
