Ahhhhh time ..... Never enough! In the Summer with work and the yard I get 6 to 8 hours a week. During the fall I'm busy with the leafs so I drop to 3 to 6 hours. In the Winter I get upwards of 20 to 30 hours a week and may have as many as three projects going.

Average: 4-5 hrs week w/ about 8-10 hrs week max. Time of year does not really effect me too much.

About 10 hours a week. That is because my children are a little bit older and more autonomous!
Ciao for now

With work, family, school, and all the projects around the house, I'm lucky to get an hour or two per week. Honestly though I could get an extra 5-6 hours per week if I spent that time modeling instead of viewing the Armorama site....just can't seem to do that...too much good information to keep up with...

Since I no longer work due to disability, you'd think I could model 40 hours a week.

Nope!

Dad ain't working, so he can watch the grand kids 60 hours a week! Mainly a 6 month old baby, a 2 year old and a 5 year old. Plus, the baby, a 13 and 14 year old live with me.

Both daughters are nurses and work 12 hour shifts 4 days a week.

So if I'm able to get in 5 hours of modeling a week, I'm happy.

Since I am disabled

I have about 6-12 hours a day to work on models. I average about 6-8 hours a day with this site and research.

Yankees games on TV takes up about 3-4 hours

Actaul kit time depends on how I feel at that time of day, or if my injury permits me to sit without pain.

I go through about a model a week or two to build and an a few days to weather and everyting else.

Happy Modeling
