Morning / Afternoon chaps
Its just gone 10 here in sunny SA and its already hitting the middle 20's (thats Deg C)

Ok, so I work away from home, and having duly arrived home last night im sitting this morning in my little man cave and pondering whats what.
I recently had a genre shift, and moved back to car modelling (only took me like 7 years to 'wake up').
I started with cars again a couple of months ago, and looking at my desk now, I have 6 on the go... SIX!!!!
They are:
- Tamiya 1/12th Porsche 935,Tamiya, 1/12th Mclaren M23, Revell JPS Mustang, Tamiya MkII Racing Saloon, Revell Jagermeister Vw Van (okay, still in ooogle / fondle stage) aaaaaaand a Revell 69 Camaro (ditto Oogle / fondle stage)

Oh, and my 67 Corvette 427 for the anniversary build, so thats 7...

Why, WHY?, for the love of (insert favourite diety here), can I not build one kit at a time?

I'll tell you why, its because we get bored just doing one kit at a time, and hell, why wait when we have a cupboard full of goodies...

And women say we cant Multitask... PAH!

btw chaps, this is the best damn car site I have ever seen...

Its hard to only work on one at a time, what with paint and glue drying so get another one out to do in the down time. Then pretty soon you've got 10 going at once and no down time at all and makes it hard to get anything done to any of them lol.

When I started the decade build I boxed everything up, including my anniversary build which needs stripped and repainted now. Its just hard not to end up with so many projects going at once.

It would be weird for me if I only had one build I was working on.
