Anyone ever just need a push to get going. Sometime’s my model I am working on just sits here day in and day out and I don’t feel like even looking at it. And some days I can’t stay away from it. 9 out of 10 times the “don’t want to look at it” wins …
Is it me ?
Bud
It happens to us all, Bud. I have looked at completed builds lately, but can’t get motivated to start a new one or even work on one I have already started. Hmmmmm…
Don’t feel bad, old friend!

I feel that way all the time, I guess it all depends if I’m in the modeling mood or not. Lately, I haven’t been in the modeling mood since I don’t have any free-time. A few hours on the weekend if I’m lucky, but it’s not enough time to get any real work done.
ummmm…yeah, just a little. i have been working on my dio for almost 11 months now! could i have finished it in less than a month…yep…as you say 90% of the time, i sit there and look at it saying over and over again in my head…“i really need to do this or that and it will be done”!! i’ve finally got it to about 95% complete…but i havent touched it in over a month!!! happens to all of us…i hope! [:-^]
Yep, I think it’s all of us. I’m in the same boat right now. Usually, I just force myself, and Within 5/10 mins. I’m into it and there’s no stopping me. If I don’t get into it(rarely happens) I just try again later.
It comes back…it always comes back
I haven’t completed a model all year. I’ve started a couple. One is actually in the decal stage. But for the past month I just can’t get motivated. I’m glad it’s a hobby and not a job or I’d be in real trouble!
We all do Bud. I haven’t completed a kit in over a year. I do notice though that when the weather changes and it starts getting colder like now that the drive comes back.
oh yeah colder eh mike…what’s the matter that california snow storm on the horizon bothering you bud! [(-D]. (that was a joke…im making fun of the nicer weather there). [;)]
Yes, it is you. and him. And him. And him… and me![(-D]
I think that is one reason I have so many kits going at the same time. I get bored with what I am working on and start up another. The constant stream of Group Builds her eI want to participate in does not help either…[B)] And then once the kit is built painting is a whole seperate issue.
Come join the “No More Excuses” Group build. That one is helping me knuckle down and get stuff completed.
Well at lest I know I am not alone [:-^]
I have seen some video on youtube on people building models and that gets me in the mood. No not that mood … [censored] [banghead] but it seems like it helps… One thing though, it’s all in japanese and I don’t understand anything [:-^], But it looks cool.
Does anyone know a good site or anything like that ?
Bud
You need a push[?] OK here’s one. We’re going to need something for show and tell soon. You AND I need to get cracking. How’s that for a push[?]
Jim[4:-)]
Pushed, Pulled, Hit, slaped, ok I got it [:-^]
Here’s your push! GO!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
What I meant was weather not nice enough to go out in the garden and pick my peppers. [(-D]
Northern California has weather somewhat like yours with lots of snow and freezes up around Lake Tahoe and such. We are in between that weather and Southern, CA so it is moderate here.
I don’t envy the weather you have in Michigan. My mom is from Wisconsin and I have heard about the snow all the time growing up. We complain when it hits 40 degrees here. [:D]
Jumping out of a perfectly good airplane is crazy. [(-D]
i know what you meant mike…was just giving you a hard time.
I know you were my friend. Thanks. [;)]
There’s no such thing as a “Perfectly good airplane”…
[#ditto] What he said! The C-130 I was supposed to have my Cherry Blast from had an engine fire when they started the engines. Try evcuating while rigged for a full combat gear jump. As if I wasnt nervous enough already…
