How on earth do you find the time to finish off projects like this?

The models do take a very long time (many months), and sometimes I can spend
days on relatively trivial parts like the upper part of the cab, and then change
it to something else entirely later. It's just an incremental thing really, I
don't expect the model to be finished overnight, and patience is the key.

And all
that documenting! Don't you get tired of the project when the building is
done?

Not at all :-) Taking the photos and videos is fun, and writing up the project
is nothing in time and effort compared with actually building the model. I enjoy
it also, it's just like talking to someone about your favourite MOC.

The only thing I dislike is the color scheme on the web pages - white on
black drives my eyes crazy, and I have top stop watching your model for a
while, then go back and continue. It's not just your page, any page with
dark background is hitting my eyes hard :-(

Interesting, maybe it is a personal preference, I don't mind it so much and
indeed bright white background with black text sometimes tires my eyes. What is
your prefence for colours? Is it a common concensus that a black background is
tiring on the eyes? I'd be interested to hear more about this.
