Lixiviation Posted July 29 #1 Posted July 29 Hi! I'm autistic and my current special interest is started kit building and painting! I'm probably doing it all badly, but I'm having a lot of fun! The irony of starting a hobby to get away from screens and then to join an online forum is not lost on me :D RVB, SiriusVoyager, AJohnson and 4 others 7

I find that when model building, I am in that state which some call "being in the zone" where you can keep everything else out of your mind and time flies by. And it is real fun!

RVB Posted yesterday at 04:43 AM #15 Posted yesterday at 04:43 AM Welcome and enjoy!! I agree 100%. When I am building a kit time gets distorted and an hour goes by in what seems like a few minutes. The downside is that it is a great way to shorten your life. Best Rick (RVB) Keith Black 1
