I was going to post this Sunday, but spaced it. It was one year ago, June 1st 2013, that I started building models again in earnest. In that time I've had bursts of energy that left me building a model every week, and I've had times of no energy that left me not touching one for up to more than a week at a time.

So far I've built 26 new planes for our game, averaging just over two per month. I've repaired and rigged 11 old ones, not counting the original repair jobs I did two years ago. I also built several 1/2400 scale ships, all for tabletop gaming, but haven't touched those since late last year.

All this and I still haven't built all the planes for the first period of the game (July 1915-May 1916), but I'm close. Then again, there are six periods in the game. I have two repairs and three new ones to go. After that the planes will start to change a lot. New ideas, new concepts, new strategies and new designs. I'm looking forward to it. But then I know what's coming.
