My kryptonite is television,I'm a sucker for binge watching doctor,lawyer,firefighter and crime dramas,along with live sports.
I work out for an hour 4 times a week
I steal a 1/2 hour here,and 45 min there.It all adds up to 5-6 builds a year.

:hmm: I rarely have more that half an hour without interuptions - maybe an hour somtimes. I generally work in fits and starts doing ten minutes here and there throughout the day fitting it in around everything else - family, looking after my son, work. That's part of the reason I can't get into airbrushing - all the faffing about mixing and cleaning takes too long.

Airbrushing is quite time consuming between the prep work and clean up afterwards.... :bored:

Yea, I used to love airbrushing. Now I kinda dread it. Although I do enjoy airbrushing a 109 or 190 now and then--I generally don't look forward to the task...

I do most of my airbrushing with a Badger gravity feed, has a small cup and cleans very quickly.

Likewise. But it still takes all the same prep time and mixing time. It just saves time in the clean up by a few steps/minutes.

My time now is usually early morning on weekends. I'm an early riser, usually 4:30. So I'll get 2 to 3 hours on a Sunday morning before wifey wakes up. Right now is snowbird season here in Florida. So I'm working 50-60 hrs per week. I truly believe there is nobody left in the midwest. Theyre all here. :hmm: At the end of the day I'm beat.
But by the middle of May most will be gone and it'll start calming down around here and I'll get more bench time

Little here... little there for me. After dinner is for watching TV with the wife... usually something from the BBC or The Last of Us when new episodes drop. Weekend time is my most active model time.

Nah... we got a bunch of those birds here in AZ too... The rest of the Mid West, and half of Canada... but yup, come April/May, they leave... thank goodness!
