Looking very good Bob. I for one am still looking in, even if I don’t post as often as I once did.
Life has been a real sod to you recently, and I know how hard that can be. Be kind to yourself.

There are others that build boats on here, so no need to get all lonesome.

[Tim Marlow]

Yep, if you want to get lonesome try large scale figures Anyway, it’s better to be out, standing in your own field, than part of a herd Bob :smiling:

Thanks Tim, yep not been great and 2024 looks like the same. But bugger all I can do, doing my best I hope!

[BattleshipBob]

Well it's been two months since the last post but yet another go, almost done. Thankfully

A bit of brush painting and a bit of touching up to do.

Some very stupid mistakes and with what's going on in my life I am considering putting the modelling stuff away in the attic or possibly packing it in.

My mojo is totally shot and seeing how poor this build is, I need a good think

Sorry you all must be sick and tired of my life.

Bob,
Don't be sillly mate we quite understand. My mum went through the same as yours is going through. Just take a break focus on what is important we will be right here waiting for you when you come back.

Looks like a nice tidy build to me Bob and i bet we probably all look at our builds and think theres room for improvement somewhere.

[Tim Marlow]

Feel for you Bob. If you need a break then take one. It’s a hobby, not a job. Just don’t forget to check in on us occasionally to keep us in line.

[stillp]

Take a break if you fell you need one Bob, we'll understand.

Thanks all, appreciated.

Well the build looks tidy, and your are a long way off beating Chris for the longest build ever in the history of this forum. Dang it, My Bismarck is taking longer than this.
Joking aside you have had a hard time of late. Maybe you need a break from building, maybe you need to build more. Get taken up by something else other than everyday life. If you do put it down for a while, just remember to keep dropping in for a chat and to keep up. You are part of the family now mate. No running away from us now .
