What interrupts your build time?

Im retired now. So I spend my time mainly building models or ride the latest addition to my collection -

Nice build, Bruce. I really like the theme, decal layout you went with. Very clean!

I did a set of bumpers using the Green Stuff world. They looked really great just after I sprayed them. I let them set, undisturbed for a week. I gently eased them into place, and they looked ok. But I have noticed, now that they are about a month old, they are no longer as shiny as when I sprayed them. They seem to be slowly turning to polished aluminum.

Excellent build, James. Very clean!

I can see why you only get 1 build done a year, The level of detail is outstanding. Congratulations on a very fine build. Now you gotta stop doing those 4 wheel skids, you flat spotted all your tires.....??

When my stash eased across the 150 mark a few years ago, I looked at the reality that Ill never build this many kits in the time I have left (Im 66). So, I stopped buying on impulse. I made a top 10 list of builds I want to do with the kits I already own. After all, they were all bought with a project in mind. I havent stopped buying kits but Ive only bought maybe 10 kits in the last 2 years and I havent bought any in 2024...??

Thanks Bob. Just to tie this up. While I dont really know what happened, but I did fix it. I cleaned out the spots the best I could. Then a couple times a day, I dabbed a spot of primer into each circle, until it was just proud of the surrounding paint. Sanded that down with some wet/dry 200 grit. Then resprayed. And this time, no issue. Thank you to all that replied Jeff

@Bob T- About a day. I tried to never rush this. Every different color of paint and primer were always at least a day apart, with trips to the dehydrator for every color. @Bob S- Thats why I put things in the dehydrator, but I still got surprised. ? @Mark- Thanks Mark, Ill keep that in mind
