DRG Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Let me say first and foremost this is a greeeat forum and I am learning a lot of different things, but. I must admit I spend more time here than I do at my hobby bench. I enjoy the comments and seeing what everyone is building. But I'm not building. During the week I come home from work to tired to work on models and have just Saturday and Sunday to build. Then when I should be building I'm here. I tell you it is a real dilema.

Dr. Cranky Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) Donald--welcome aboard. All I can tell you is that my building developed into an organic routine between building, photographing and then sharing the work with other builders. I like all three activities, although I enjoy building and painting the most. I think this is "the zone" most builders get into and quickly become addicted to. I also think this forum is great for the inspiration. Edited August 7, 2010 by DamnCranky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Unless I'm just totally drained, I try to get 30 minutes to an hour each night at the bench before I go to bed. I'm a night person so that helps. You would be suprised how much you can build at that rate. Don't sweat it. You'll find your groove.

The craftsmanship I see here on this board shows me I have a lot to learn. But that to is part of the process.

Steven Zimmerman Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 I try to build for an hour every night before I go to work,and 4 or 5 hours on saturday night,when a couple of modelling friends come over. We build while watching whatever lousy movie is on the sci- fi channel....'Z' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the week I come home from work to tired to work on models and have just Saturday and Sunday to build. Then when I should be building I'm here. I tell you it is a real dilema. I used to think that way. Now I understand that being on a board is just as important as building. Why you ask. Inspiration. Freeing your mind can allow new ideas to enter. Sometimes we get in a building slump where, we want to build but don't know which one. It will all work out just right. Don't fight it, just go with what happens.
