2023 Year in Review

Continuing the series of retrospectives, let’s take a look at year 2023. While in a global, geopolitical sense the year was just as bad as 2022 (at least from my perspective), from the modelling standpoint it was actually fairly good. On the surface of it, I only completed two models. But it’s the model that count, not the total number. HMS Terror I’m delighted that the dreaded HMS Terror is finally finished!

2022 Year in Review

I like the ‘year in review’ format I tried for the first time last year, so here we go again. No point in sugarcoating it - 2022 was a terrible, terrible year, with horrible war starting in Europe. Of course this affected all parts of my life, including hobbies, as I was too depressed and anxious to bring myself back to it. Eventually I managed (or rather forced myself) to do at least some modelling, if anything because it calms me and improves my mental health.

2021 Year in Review

First time I’m doing this ‘year in review’ thing, decided to give it a try. Turns out, I only completed two models this year, mostly thanks to the fact that sailing ships take enormous amount of time to finish. I track the days I worked on the models, but not the amount of time, which of course varies from 20 minutes to multiple hours. I can work on more than one model in a single day, so adding those numbers up is kinda misleading.
