Default RE: Lost interest in a build

Hi-

This is something which probably happens to all of us at one point or another. I enjoy building, but there are parts of the process which I don't find very rewarding, so when I get to them, I will slow down. One thing that I have noticed helps me move along is to build out of sequence. I might work on a wing panel, get to the point that it is ready to join to the other half, only to start working on the stab or fuselage for a change of pace. I typically start with one wing panel, build the fuse, stab, rudder and finish the build with the other panel. I also noticed that from time to time, it helps to work on a simple part of the build, just so that you can feel like you accomplished something. Also, sometimes setting it aside for a few weeks will help.

In the end, sometimes we also loose interest in the plane itself. I have noticed that I generally will carry through if the plane is supposed to fill a void in the fleet. In a sense, it gives it purpose.

Good luck,

Teo
