In desperate need to get this back if anyone finds it!
 
... normally I could do the but kicking bit with relish mate....
.... but from this far away I'm afraid it just ain't possible!! :sad::tears-of-joy:
 
I would say it’s probably off partying with mine…..but I know mine is just hiding away until I get the Avenger done…..just keep logging in, and reading around….it’ll come back eventually.
 
Take it easy, sit back and let it pass. Ignore what you have on the bench that is giving you the ache, if need be, pack it in the box and put it out of sight. Then browse through the boxes of the future projects, look through the instructions/photo etch and plan for the future builds.
I have been in the slump for over three weeks with other contributing factors included. I have made a concerted effort to get the bridge part of my build finished and completed it today. Next project is an old build that has been sitting around for two years or more and now is the time to finish it.

Yup,
it must be the weather! After an enforced absence from the bench ( OA in hand ), I returned, only to find that my Mojo has taken a holiday........................... It'll return in its' own good time. In the meantime read, or do retail therapy for your dream project ( without actually pressing the 'buy' button ). I'm giving the 3D printer a bit of a workout ( non-modelmaking items )

Thanks Andy but I'm not a big fan of relish, :rolling: :tears-of-joy:, well you are over the border and a little further away! :tongue-out3:

Mines to lazy to party, probably swerved off somewhere and sleeping! I will keep logging in to see if someone has handed it in to lost property.

Mike, I ignore it but it just shouts at me! I even tried to start another thinking it was that one that bothered me... nope!

Thanks Dave, I did think that I could be weather related but at the same time I've got a lot screaming through my head... work, car, decorating, the want to still be holiday... blah blah blah
 
Last time I looked in Lee, you were sitting on what I thought was a pretty cool diorama. From the looks of it, you had a well thought out theme and just needed a little more work to get it to the finish line. Hope you find yer missing mojo soon.

Thanks Rick, I thought everything was going swimmingly too but I guess life gets in the way, we're all preoccupied with one thing or another, I'll get it back, I'll snap out of this slump... I need too!

It's frustrating mate, I hate feeling down, really down! I need a pick me up from but it's just finding where to get that pick me up from, BnM doesn't have them, work definitely doesn't have any... :rolling::upside:
 
I find the Summer brings many distractions.Well our wet summer hehe.I find watching youtube and going to model shows tends to inspire me.The lure of kits and seeing others models sometimes helps.

Schade! My mojo is here but temporarily submerged due to the major garden refurbishment and a sustained attack from visiting family and friends :anguished: Keep looking mate, that's one thing the Carpet Monster can't swallow whole! (And ... Get that Dio finished ... !)

I'm sure that our enthusiasm for everything (DIY is the exception - that's always at rock bottom) goes up and down naturally. The modelling mojo does just that but it always returns. Main thing is don't beat yourself up about it. When all's said and done it's only a hobby.

Rich, I'll have to try and find a local model show, see if that helps.

Steve, I hear you mate, we have a gardening project going on too, decorating a busmans holiday for me!
Dio, I will finish it!

Decorating, yes I do it everyday, the last thing I want to be doing on a weekend! I know, the quicker it's done swmbo will he off my back too.
Just a hobby we spend hours doing and enjoy, even if it is only collecting kits!
 
I am in the same boat. A complete lack of Mojo. Nothing to do with the kit i am working on. Mine is just a consequence of the Stroke I had 3 years ago. I get periods when I just can't be bothered with anything. It will pass eventually and the glue will start flowing again.

2014 the year I joined the group.
Since then I have seen nothing but pure admiration for one an others work, even if deep down you think 'did your guide dog build that for you?!'
This group is full of positivity, that's what makes a group great.
Someone is down, they lose their mojo, family member, friend or even their pet... this group is amazing for being fully supportive and being that shoulder that someone needs to cry on, gripe or whinge, everyone here gives that support.
From myself, I thank everyone for their kind words over my builds, regardless to what you actually thought of them, I thank you all for the words of support to try and get my mojo back.
One last thing, being full of nutters, weirdos, janners... you're all amazing in your own weird ways, keep up the good work people.

Thank you!images-1.png

John, yep, can't be bothered pretty much sums it up really, can't wait for it to pass.
 
Lee,
Don't force it mate, it will come back when it's ready. Until then just sit back and enjoy the banter on here.

Paul, I'm letting things happen as they come, I've cleared my bench, I've had a tidy up (ish!).
The banter and the response help keep it real mate... thank you
