FUNK



Trying to gain back my enthusiasm. I just finished this dude. I say finished, but it really needs a little more work. I seem to do this a lot. I get a figure about 98% finished and that's when I feel like it's finished enough to share it. I'll still add some pastel weathering and touch up a few details and hit the visible glue spots with some dull coat.

My pace lately has been slow but steady. I'm going to go back through some of my backlog of original projects next and see about getting back into some of those. There's some good stuff in there, but I lost interest for one reason or another. I'm to a point on a couple of those that I just need to hit that tipping point that means completion is inevitable. After I get my first Tri-athlon behind me I expect to gain back the drive for my favorite hobby again.

Hello, I'm one of your blog reader and modeller living in Japan. I am always impressed your work and enjoying articles. Thanks for your impressive work always.

Anyway, another reason why I want to comment today is that you're going to take part in "Triathlon". I'm a amateur triathlete too and I'm glad I found another "Modelling and Triathlon fan". Good luck for your first Triathlon!

Thanks Kaz! Interesting to come across another with the same two passions. If you're interested, I started blogging my training experience about six months ago. My first race is April 11th.
