Wow, good memory! Bumblebee (or "Goldbug", as he'll be the post "hate virus" version as seen in the classic series) is right about where I left him, with all of the VW Beetle parts cut apart. He's at the top of my build list though, as I have aquired a lot of the supplies that I need to build his body parts.
My real enemy is all of the cool new kits coming out this year! I've aquired the new Doctor Who kit & a resin BSG Viper Mk.2 kit. Then there's the big Seaview coming out, plus the Lost in Space "Chariot" & "Space Pod". Then there's the trip to WonderFest in Kentucky! Oh, my poor wallet! ![Black Eye [B)]](/emoticons/icon_smile_blackeye.gif)
If you don't mind me asking, what sort of commissions are you doing? Is that your full time job, or are you doing it on the side? |

Full time?! I wish it was! Actually, I almost had a job at a movie studio building models, but it didn't happen. The real full time gig is a cameraman for CBS/FOX:

As for the comissions, I am doing them on the side for a little extra cash. I love the TV stuff, but it doesn't pay what I'd like. As for what I'm working on, here's the list.

I actually was scratching it, but then I found the resin kit.

Here's one I just finished a few weeks ago, a Romulan D-7

I'm also in posession of the Orion Space Clipper from the movie 2001 that will begin to be built shortly.
As for my own builds, here's the list:
