          Needs a few more options:
          • Adding to the stash
          • Talking about it online
          • When the model is at last finished

                I enjoy the fact that I can do what I want, when I want, and it impacts nobody but myself. I can also model any subject or period I want. It’s mindfulness in the truest sense, where I live in the moment with no pressure but my own......

                  Posting updates and reading the banter, has to be included.
                  But for me the Diorama is perhaps the best part with building the model the second.

                      Researching and learning as much as I can about the subject I intend to model so I can do it as accurately as possible.

                        Just getting frustrated that everything is going wrong :flushed:

                        Glass (maybe 2) of wine & all is right in the world . :fearful:

                        Or even a crooked panel line.

                        Pint of beer.

                        Oh god that bit has broken off again.

                        A nooky of Cider.:smiling:

                        I have finished it is on the shelf.

                        A good nights sleep after all the drinks above.:sleeping:

                          not so much assembly but seeing that box of bits getting less and less as it gets assembled

                          got this habit of cutting excess sprue off as parts are removed, sprues get smaller and smaller til nothings left
                          Per Ardua

                          We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no ones been

                              i think another entry on the list should be 'bargains'............nothing as satisfying as scoring a bargain on ebay or at a show or online somewhere
