mrmike Posted August 10, 2023 Author Share Posted August 10, 2023 I have been away for the last 2 1/2 months undergoing knee surgery and suffering some type of modelers burnout. I have been building constantly since I retired some 6 1/2 years ago and I got up to 5 projects on the bench at one time. Enough is enough! I've got to relieve some of this pressure off of myself. Yesterday afternoon, I ordered a Revell Porsche 911 Targa to build the car from TV's Will Trent. That seems to have restarted my resurgence into the modeling world and I decided to clearcoat my '66 GTO that has been sitting in the paintbooth since the end of June. I'll let this set for a couple of days to dry and harden. Have a look! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redscampi Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Welcome back. Burnout is real. That said, I love this goat build! I,ve never had a GTO but I've had both a 66 Lemans and a 67 Lemans. The 67 was a similar color to this when I got it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmike Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 Nice looking LeMans, Gary! Thanks! My burnout is very real and I am trying to get over it. I have read other attempts to get over a burnout and have taken some of them to heart. All I can say is that I am working on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
