Typical Skin Time
« on: October 14, 2006, 10:00:43 PM »
I was curious, its taking me a long time to finish Neal Kearby's Jug.  How long does a typical skin take from scratch, i.e. no template or re-use of the same airframe?

Just taking a poll...

I think for me some of mine have taken upwards of 40 hours. 20+ skin, and 10+ research.

The most recent one I worked on... I don't even have a count. I thought I was less than 10 hours away from completion, when I was informed that I was doing an invalid plane.
Now I think I've sunk 50 hours into it and still not complete because I keep getting frustrated with how it looks. lol
