Guest Peterpools Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Much appreciated Anthony and I'm going a lot slower but I'm hanging in and moving forward. I've been building the WNW's Roland in between frustrating stages and that little gem has been working her magic. Great advice Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Peter So very much appreciated and I do remember our conversations over the Tigercat and Hornet and that's exactly what friends are all about! I've taken the middle road and when the Owl wins the round and beats me into the bench, I have just been putting her down and walking away. I've piked up the WNW Roland kit, a brilliant kit and work on it until I feel the juices flowing and the drive to be at the Owl's side of the bench to be taking hold. Then I put the Roland down and the next work session, I pick up the Owl again. While it's not the fastest way to build a complicated kit with issues, it has helped immensely and kept me sane. Over the past two weeks, I'm will to bet I've worked a lot more on the Roland then the Owl as getting through this stage seems to be the biggest hurdle. I'll be literally grinding it out, much slower then I thought but the Owl barring any disasters, will eventually cross the line. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monthebiff Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Peter, Sorry to hear the enjoyment level has waned badly on your Owl but your results are so far absolutely spectacular. Maybe time to put it to one side for a little while and crack open a nice Tamiya single seater and then come back to it.........but please do come back to it as your Owl will be spectacular when finished. Regards. Andy Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Thanks Carl Somehow, I always seem to manage to find a more difficult build after each difficult build ... but that's just my luck I guess. I'm going to keep going and finish the Owl but in order to keep my sanity and keep the juices renewed, I've been working on a very enjoyable and fun build in between all this frustration the WNW Roland. It picks me up and the fit is superb. So I work on the Owl until I'm frustrated and beat, then the next few sessions; it's Roland time. Peter Peter, that's been my approach for a long time. Which means some builds take a long time My work bench at the moment has 6 different active builds on it. I just switch to another one when I hit a mental stumbling block and then come back when I'm in a better frame of mind. Carl CANicoll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Peterpools Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Hi Andy I'll keep plugging away but I've found, when the juices need to be replenished, I head over to my WNW Roland build for few session and then I'm ready to tackle the Owl again. It;s just a shame, ZM had a fantastic opportunity to produce a spectacular kit and fell victim to all the toy like features. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
