I too have more kits on the go than is good for me. But I'm blaming the virus for that rather than my usual tendency of biting off more than I can chew. In the back row we have an Air France A321 - almost completed, an Ansett A.320 - waiting for decals, and a white back A321 which will probably end up in the livery of a French airline. In the front row is the new KP MiG-19 - which I could not resist when it arrived, a Kara Dewoitine 53 - keeping up my French quota and almost finished, the beginnings of the conversion of a Revell Fokker 100 into a Fokker 70, the F-Rsin deHavilland DH-91 - almost completed, and the Arctic Express deHavilland DH-86 - which I'm turning from a B to an A with the intention of making a QEA aircraft. In addition there are another three A.320s waiting for decals, all delayed due to the virus. That's not too many, is it?

I'm disappointed in the turn of events but somehow my life has become busier than ever. My build pace has nose dived. 3 months ago I decided to devote all my time to a single build to get it done because it's for an online GB but the problem is I decided to go with a pile of spare parts and make it into an airplane. Combine all this crap together and... indeed, this thing is all I've worked on. I'm closing in on the end of it, however. I want to focus on this thing and my two airliner builds before I start something new but when I DO think about what's next, I think I want to do a very simple WWII fighter plane. :)

As for the pile spare parts, as of this evening I've managed this:

Getting close to touch up and detail painting then it's on to clear coat and decals.

At last check, my two ongoing airliner builds are like this:

All of these have pushed my skills to the limits. In many cases I'm still a novice and I've had to learn as I go and many mistakes have been made. I've had to re-do things many times. That 737 was started some two years ago. Anyway.... I'm not giving up, it's just taking awhile.
