Oh, poor hunter. No, I did not destroy it and start working on a third. My strength has just faded, and I find it a very bad thing to force creativity on a project. I will give it some time off and then pick it up again. He is close to being done, but not close enough to tough it out. It will be something to look forward to. On the other hand, creativity does not go away. In my down time from the hunter, I have made a snowman and two new miniature ships. I have made the Atlantis City Ship as well as a version 2.0 of the Andromeda Ascendant. Atlantis was new, but I was not pleased with how my original Andromeda came out all five years ago or so. My skill has improved and the new medium I am using for the prototypes is much better. I think I used polymer clay for the original Andromeda. Well, the new ship is more accurate and looks much sleeker. My brother has supplied me with a few more ship ideas, and from another source, I have plenty of ships to keep me occupied. These ships are nice since they are not as long of a commitment as a project like the hunter or pelican. Well, I will work on things a little more, but I do not expect to get a lot of work done until the summer. I need hot weather to cast my ships, and very bad thing to cast in the house. It will be days before that resign smell leaves me.
