Well, Im not entirely sure how many people here enter contests, but I enter 1 or 2 kits each year at my club's contest, mainly for fun.
I am developing a (bad?) habit of waiting until almost the last minute to finish--or somtimes start-- a build for the show. For instance, it is Friday at midnight, the contest is tomorrow morning, and at 7pm today I began a display base for a dinosaur that I'm entering. Last year I started a car one week before the contest and finished it the night before.
Honestly I kind of enjoy working under the "pressure". I seem to think less about the how, what, why and instead just build and paint. I did the same thing through high school and college; it seemed like I was pulling all nighters once or twice a semester.
Does anyone else do this, or am I as wierd as my wife insists I am?
