Mike Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Give her a pat on the back for those As supportive of my hobby as Caz is, I can't imagine her ever picking up a kit and building it Still - more for me to build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Bird Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Wow! These are fantastic models for someone new to the hobby. She deserves that pat on the back, plus more! Like a whole bunch of hobby supplies and more kits to add to her stash! My wife is always offering to finish any model that I have underway, but when I look at the dents and scratches in her car, I always decline her offer. If she models like she drives, it wouldn't be pretty! Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Bird Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I think her modelling skills are inversely proportional to her driving skills. Shes written at least 3 cars, 2 planes and a yacht off and is to parking what Myra Hindley was to baby sitting..... YIKES!! Is the insurance paid up? Were the two planes models, or actual aircraft?

Davec_24 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Looks like your girlfriend has taken to this with some enthusiasm not to mention that she obviously already has the basic skill sets to build upon and improve with each build she does. It's great to be able to share a hobby with your other half, especially when it's a major hobby, that way they understand why you spend so much time and effort doing it and a fair bit of time talking about it too! I introduced my wife to modelling a few years back, and she's surprisingly good too; I was expecting her to have similar problems to when I started modelling as a child (building up hand-eye coordination as well as knowledge base) but she's taken to it like a duck to water and just asks me for advice when she gets stuck or needs a second opinion. She also enjoys researching the subject of the build for inspiration and historical context too, so she can now understand why I enjoy being knowledgeable to the point of sadness about certain aircraft and AFVs!

upnorth Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 You are lucky indeed. My girlfriend is generally supportive of my hobby and fascination with aircraft, but she's also quite strightforward in saying she doesn't understand the fascination. I think she knows I could find far more detrimantal ways of spending my time and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I think her modelling skills are inversely proportional to her driving skills. Shes written at least 3 cars, 2 planes and a yacht off and is to parking what Myra Hindley was to baby sitting..... LOL!!! I hope she wasnt holding a scaplel as you typed that. Nice models- good to see another modeller joining the ranks regardless of sex. I must admit, when I saw yout thread title, I was half expecting some slightly "different" photographs...

Natter Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. You're going to need some serious storage with two people contributing to the stash though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
