Boot repair shop by BTS

This is my step forward after making few steps back in attempt to complete the started kits. Suddenly, I found myself not being able to continue any of the lunch break projects because they all needed something that could be done only at home. What else could I do other than to start something new? I know, it is poor excuse, but what can be better than the smell of the laser cut  wood?
The boot repair kit adds a little of counter weight to the situation, but the chances of getting to the bottom of the list are slim to none at his point. It is like mortgage. You see the end in the tunnel. You will have you house paid off and then you buy new house, bigger or more expensive, and you start over. Perhaps, it is meant for me to have this quite long unfinished project list forever? I would finish some, add some, but it would never go away.

Building Chippys Hollow Hardware Co by Fine Scale Miniatures Pt.2

This is a long overdue update. I have separated the main structure and the dock. They will be installed at different spots on layout. I am also working on couple of sub-assemblies. The project is getting close to the end, but I still have a ton of castings to paint and a truck to build.

Building Dewitt's Depository by Campbell Pt.2

I took some time off from work and the modeling at the beginning of July. I went overseas. I thought the trip would cure my burnout. It didn't. I had to force myself to work on my projects for the first two weeks after coming back. I even had some thoughts of giving up the hobby and doing something else with my time. It got all better over the other two weeks. I even managed to finish the Dewitt's kit.
I weathered the building a little bit more than any of the others I built. I added some water streaks at the bottom corners  of the windows. I did that on one other structure and I didn't like it. I am not sure if I like it this time around either. I think I'll just let it to soak in for awhile and then decide if I want to do this again.
