goodbye guys i'm leaving the hobby and sell my kits

Post by andreb87 »

as i already posted i'm leaving the hobby for 2 reasons, i have to clear my mancave for the baby and i dont have the time for modelling because of my job. i would like to thank all of you for the joy i had in the past. modelling with you guys was a great experience and i will keep looking inside your building reviews =) i created several threads in the buy and sell area of the forum so if you guys want some of my stuff send me a pm :) cheers :cheers2:

Wish you all the best Andre. I'm sure you will be like me signing back in one day and explaining you've been away after a few years break. Good luck. :cheers2:

Good luck, simmilar thing happened to me when we had our second child, at some future point you probably will return, like I did. Good luck and all the best in the meantime!

I haven't spoken or come across you on here since i started the hobby.
However I wish you all the best with your new family, I myself have a 1 year old and a 3 year old, i know how much time and attention children need.

Perhaps in a few years you will come back here again and I will be welcoming you back. (make sure you keep a couple of kits stowed away for that day ;) )

Real life first, hobbies dead last. Focus on being a good hubby and dad, the hobby will still be here when you have more time.

wish you all the best mate! :)

Good thing with this hobby, you'll come back later (maybe in 5 years) and everything will be amazing, still!

Besides, i've built kits with my father when I was 5 or 6, and it was much fun, just dont let the kid dip his nose in the paint, like I did.

cheers

Good luck and congratulations with the little one - don't give up the hobby fully - little one may well like making things with daddy - keep those model making tendencies bubbling on the back burner for a few years then come back to it - I am sure we will all be here.
