Really? Not a single Spitfire all year?!
One could call this my Mayan apocalypse. I did at least start 4 Spitfires...
But I got totally sidetracked by the Museum builds. One of which was not something I signed up for, and the other was a total drag as it was the Matchbox Halifax. Not a bad kit, but I wanted more out of my build than I should have expected.
Now for my guilt trip...it seems that somebody is actually reading what I write. The number one post, in terms of pageviews, is my Fujimi FR Mk XIVe from earlier this year. A close second is 2011's CMR Prototype Spitfire K5054. Over on my non-Spitfire page the top read post is about Academy's F4F Wildcat -- go figure. What about these subjects makes them interesting? What did I put in them that is causing them to pop on search engines? Obviously I should post more...
And in that vein, I need to make more progress on my Spitfire III. I pick it up every weekend, but put it back down after pondering the surgery needed to make it. That Matchbox Halifax and the Revell Condor are not ego boosters for me, in terms of my skills. And I totally botched two Tamiya Spitfires last year attempting to cross kit and make a cannon-armed Mk I and Mk Va.
I did complete 15 models for the year, and I may actually sneak in another before year's end.
Hopefully everyone has a great holiday; I know I will, even if I only handle some plastic instead of actually finishing a model!
Thanks for ready...Merry Christmas!
