Hi Jamie
Nice jeep. This was the first model I made back in 2010. What's next?

Thanks Mick, I've made a 2nd Sherman in the 4 months I've been modelling but that was for my neighbour so in 4 months I've completed a total of 6 builds and I'm currently working on a Patton tank which arrived today in the post.

The graph says that as your skill goes up, your output will go down. That’s me trying say: enjoy this period when you’re not yet as skilled as you will (hopefully) be in future, because now you’ll actually build lots of the models you want to — instead of having lots of models sit unbuilt in boxes while you have plans for what to do with them, but which you never seem to get round to because you’re still working on perfecting (an)other model(s) that take forever to finish

Ahh I see now... Yer I'm hoping as my skills develop I will slow down my production as I intent on building a diorama once I have built my skill up

 

[Guest]

My experience is that diorama-building is also something you should do before you get too afflicted with AMS¹ — again, you might never actually finish one if you wait until you think your skills are sufficient, and/or may lack the room by then because of all the other models you’ve built
