I generally try to keep myself occupied over the winter. Bikes are parked and generally there’s not much sporty driving to be had in the winter months. I’ve got a few mods/fixes to do on the motor vehicles, but I’m waiting to see how taxes and bonuses shake out before going Over the last few winters, I’ve generally done LEGO but space has become an issue, so this season I decided to take up plastic model building. I used to build pretty frequently as a kid, and the last model I attempted was probably over 10 years ago. I’ll post pics and updates on progress here.
First model: Tamiya 1:20 scale Honda RA272. This car won the Mexican Grand Prix, the last race of the 1.5L era.

Same. I've learned patience in my old age. Also, I'm using acrylics as opposed to enamels; they dry much faster.

I’ve got a bunch of model kits that is never started in my parents’ basement. I should just send them to you.
