To put that "month" in perspective................ I'm retired, I live alone, and have little else to do with my time. Many years ago (when I had a normal life}, I had a wife and kids, a job, a house to take care of, and a jillion other things that took up my time. I was lucky if I could find a few hours a week to work on a model. So.....a few hours a week would take me over a year to do what I did last "month".
At this point in my life I can work on my hobby all day, every day......It's never too late to have a happy childhood!
I really enjoy scratchbuilding stuff for some reason. Maybe the convenience of having just about every hobby tool ever invented has something to do with it too. In the past 15 years or so I have been able to scratchbuild about eighty (80) 1/16th scale models of one type or another. My house is not a home anymore.....it's a hobby shop.
This amphibious jeep was something a little different......a change of pace from doing "tanks".
I want to do some British tanks soon, but I don't know where to start, there are so many that would be cool.........
