Real life has interfered with modelling a great deal this year. Early in the year both wife and I were sporadically ill, and in her case what we thought in April was a bad flu turned into viral pneumonia. When we got her to the hospital she was unresponsive, and they put her into a medically-induced coma, which lasted eight days before they could bring her back to consciousness. She was in hospital till the end of June, and since then I have been pretty much a combination of orderly, nurse's aide, and maid of all work. In the last couple of weeks things have gotten back to near normal; she is up and about, and able to do most everything for herself. April was damned scary, though.
I am easing back into modeling, and intend to be starting soon on another scratch-build.
