Hi, I'm ClumsyModeler. Perhaps you remember me from...
Aww hell, I've never finished a model since I was 6!
Since the last time I was active here, I got a new job and managed to piss away two years of my life while the new position slowly killed me inside. I distracted myself with my firearms hobby, but that's just too expensive for me to continue. I've be staring longingly at my stash of kits, wondering if I was ever going to finish any of them.
Well, I'm not promising anything, but I'm giving it another shot. I've spent some time this last week getting the desk I bought at a Goodwill store cleaned up. I managed to bury it under a ton of stuff in the garage. Spiderwebs are off, dusted, and my wonderful and supportive Mrs helped me lug it upstairs. Here it is, already well on its way to being disorganized before I even get a model on the cutting mat...
I bought these LED lights from IKEA years ago... might as well put 'em up. I'll be organizing the wires in the next day or so...
And here's what it looks like with the wires out of the way and them on. I dig. Good start!
That little compressor is amazingly loud. Disappointed in the $100 purchase since none of the reviews mentioned how loud it is, but I'll use it until I can afford a nice silent-type compressor. Going cheap cost me a lot of money. So stupid...
Anyway, with any luck I will probably get started by trying to finish up my Virago kit I started up years ago. Might as well. LOL!
