If you’ve lost the will to build what you love, the thing that always works for me is to do something you’ve not done before. Build an aircraft, or a ship, or something Sci-fi or whatever you’re unfamiliar with. Doing a little looking around on different venues gets my mind back in gear for a bizarre or one off project. That’s how I started building armor since I’d built aircraft most of my life. I never expected to build more than 1-2 armor pieces but it was almost 5 years before I built another plane...

Is this campaign a go or is it a dead horse?

I am planning on using foam board, and mirrored acrylic, for the sides and back. Just wrapped the mirrored parts in plastic wrap and pull it off, when they get dirty.

John is usually pretty responsive. You've tried PMing him directly, I assume?

As usual, stuff built since the last one will count. As long as pics (or links to pics) are in the thread... I'm good with it.
