I am so sorry to my comrades who build the most elegant of things, the aircraft. I have to tell you that Its near that time of year, and I have alreay started a tank. I understand, its terrible. But don't worry I will get sick of it pretty fast and start the planes again. I even have one on the shelf ready to go when I quite the other.

Please don't burn me at the stake!

I'm sure I speak for a lot of the aircraft moddelers here when I say that our thoughts are with you during this stressful time. I'm sure that you will come through it a stronger person and will soon be back to building things of beauty and grace rather than those horrible things that dwell in the mud. #:-)

Take it easy, have fun building armor.

Be careful, be very careful out there, the dark side is waiting for you

Chip,
At least you are BUILDING!
Many visitors here to the forum don't build as much.Some build,or say they do,and fail to share their pictures with us.
If anyone asks me,I am a model builder.I dont mind if whatever it is only gets airborne,going over a ledge at speed... (++) (++) (++)

Don't worry Chip. I too have been drawn to the dark side but the force is strong in me. I sense it is strong with you also. The power of the dark side will not prevail over you!

seriously, I am also trying my hand at armour right now but I can't see myself doing to much of it. I just like aircraft too much.

P.S. Tankcarl, don't be to hard on those who don't post Pics of their work. Not everybody has access a digital camera or may not be as comfortable with technology as others. This does't mean they don't make models and even if they don't they probably still enjoy talking about them and sharing their knowledge. Sometimes life is just to busy for hobbies.

"...rather than those horrible things that dwell in the mud..." WHAT!!!??? (I'm just kidding. I do all kind of models, I just favor Armor.)

All I can say is that armor will calm you nerves much, much better than aircraft. It may have something to do with being able to wallow in the mud and enjoy it. Good luck! Once tried will never be the same again HEHE,HEHE,HEHE

What can I say - Chip has a courage to say the truth , I want add some 5 cents to this subject - My Abrams also waiting for me - as I always admire MY friends from Armorama and their Panzer/Trupen projects I decided to get the chalenge with My favorite Tank M1 Abrams - Stil hoping My Panzer Master John "Jeepney" The Lurker Leader help me to build a master piece. Take Care CHip with Armour
