    DEATH!FEAR of getting so involved in my current relationship that it would lead to things that will just consume all of my time...the current market, need to get what I can while it is still within my budget.Taking advantage of the good times and enjoying it while I still have the means and ability to build what I want. Life is short. In my case well those who know me know what I mean there. I don't want to spend years building these. I want them avaiable to me to use in a year or 2 not 10 years from now. Nats and MWC nats in 2010. I want my ships to be ready. CWC-X I want to have ships build for this format and begin trialing the rules through on water R&D. CHALLENGE! Ok I have little spare time than ever before and I committed myself to get these models built so that I can move on to my other favorite projects like my 2 RC SUBS and get my Tanks coverted to RC combat(infra red) Plus I have a few very large plastic model projects I want to build. The sooner I can build them and get these ships done the sooner I can begin to enjoy them. I like to have choices here and I enjoy testing myself. I love the ships especially building them but I enjoy the finished model even more and I my enjoyment exponeniates even further when I sail and Battle them. So I am setting myself up for Future Battles, Great Fun and excitement and not allowing my enjoyment of these things to slip away from me.
    Obession... isn't what this hobby is about? LOL. YES I am obsessed but in a good way. Impatient. I can't wait the rest of my life to get these done!
    Did I say I love to Challenge myself? I work better under pressure. I want to see if I can manage it.

    BOTTOM LINE... I'M CRAZY
    NUFF SAID.

    What's the difference between CRAZY and COMMITTED? Probably a doctor's signature [:D][8D][:p] Seriously. I would agree with Curt on this. Once I have a decent workshop space, I will order one more and that will be my last ship. I will have all range and size of boats for use.
