    Good evening fellow modellers,

    I've noticed that this board has started to slacken in activity, my guess is that it's simply because of christmas - weather isn't great, people too busy to indulge in their favourite hobby etc etc.

    I figure alot of people must be buying/receiving model-related things for christmas, I wonder what the general trend is...


    Most people seem to get their first trainer at christmas, but what about cars/trains?

    I personally ament actually buying/receiving anything model related this christmas, but if I had some extra cash I'd certainly go for a nice new pattern ship......big wide fuselage...short wingspan....something like a Magnum (only not as fast!), would be nice for when the weather improves a little bit :)


    So, what are you getting or, more importantly, what do you wish you were getting?

    Fobia.

    Hi Fobia,

    Nothing really to model specific on my Christmas list but a new Digital Camera is definately in order. So hopefully sorting that out this week if the little woman gives the go ahead.

    So thats it for me have plenty of kits to work on. Not only the Focus from the other thread but also an Alfa 155 Jagermeister which has been sitting on the bench for the most of the year plus another Alfa 155 Bosch and Mercedes D2 DTM to be started and also a Williams FW11 if I can ever get replacement decals for it.

    So with the rate that I build my kits should keep me going for a few years yet...lol. Although the Focus is going along very quickly right now and should be painted this weekend. And I promise to have pics after this weekend I know I promised some from last weekend but I didnt get much done.

    You hit the nail on the head Ciaran. I am just not a happy person, unless I have a few models "as work in progress" .

    The inner debate about which one to build a bit further is a pleasant feeling.

    I wonder are most modellers the same?
