Good Morning, looks like I get to kick the day off.

I couldn't sleep last night so ended up getting some nice detailing completed  of model I am working on. Sleep often comes slowly, age I guess. Today we are expecting high winds, rain and perhaps tornados. We could use the rain but forget about the rest. Well off to the coffee pot. Man oh man I am sure glad Graig got this clubroom up and running again, and I love the program that operates it, much nicer than what I was looking at. Have a great day!

Sunny and warmish (for December).  I did some scenery work yesterday.  If I like it, I'll clean up the area, replace the structures and the backdrop panel, and call this area "done".  Photos later.

Morning everyone

Jim thanks for the coffee.

We had a granddaughter visit yesterday.
So there wasn't much time for modeling.

Hopefully today I can get in a couple of hours.

Everyone have a wonderful day!!  :)

Good morning.

Just back from picking up groceries.  No modeling yesterday, probably not much today.  Thinking about running a couple more errands as the traffic was less than I expected this morning.  Lots of ongoing Christmas prep is filling my time recently.  

I hope everyone has a great day!

Good afternoon!  I have been busy in the workshop and just stopped for a quick sandwich break. I had one of those mornings where I got more done in a few hours than I did in the last couple of days.  I love it when that happens.  I'm heading back in before I loose momentum.  I hope everyone is have a great day.

Hi Everyone,
Still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact the 2023 is nearly over. 

I do have a question for the group.  Since the forum is back, should we do a 2024 build contest?

I added the fence, and should finish up this area in the next day or two.

When I find my Presier dogs, I'll add a dog and doghouse, too.  That's my rework of the Mine Mount Models "Wiley's Good Times Tavern" (https://minemountmodels.com/shop/ols/products/wileys-good-times-tavern )
