I really like building models and I spend lots of time building models. In fact, I just got home from spending the weekend at a show with many model building friends where we talked about models and looked at models (and even built some models in the hotel room at night) and I think I'm going to go build a model right now.

Somehow, (and call me crazy), I get this sneaking suspicion that spending lots of time at the bench building models really helps to improve ones skill set.

Of course, I've been wrong before.

Carry on.
