Was tidying up my paints the other day (it's that IHG influence  :o ) and noticed how many models I had on the go.

Currently I have 6 in various states of build - excluding the long term hangar queens- and that's about my average

Was wondering what other's "average builds on the go were like" ? Only stuff you are still working on mind, not stuff you havn't touched in eon's

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Does profiling count??

Seriously tho, I haven't touched plastic (except to fingle recent purchases) for something like 3 or 4 years.  That said there are hanger queens aplenty in the stash, at last serious count about two dozen, I kid you not.

I'm gonna have to seriously get back into it tho, it's just finding the time, resources and will.

Got three - Orion I suborbital Panam spaceplane, Skyraider II, and Mako-
Plus this Mysiascht... (damned name  <_< ) M-100 FSW bomber which has definitively become a hangar queen
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

I work on one project at a time until I finish it and then move on to the next. Part of the reason for this is that I live in a very tiny cottage and don't have space for "hangar queens".
