Because our eyes and ambition exceed our time available for builds, most model makers are also accidental model collectors....
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

I've got a bunch of old models I bought on e-bay very cheap and I'm slowly working through the builds. I got real busy over the christmas break and built all in 1/72 M4A1(76)w, Hurri 2c and a mark X torbeau. I also started a 1/48 P38m and an La-7 but I'm going to take my time with them. I was concerned that they were probably worth something and should keep them in their box but I just had to start building.
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.
