I'm bouncing around several games right now. New season of CoD, Space Marine 2, Balatro, Monster Train, and STALKER 2.
I also started Valkyria Chronicles 4 recently and have been enjoying that as well.
You're too kind, and I appreciate it. It was a fun build. I had turned my nose up at the Mater Grade models due to their reputation for being difficult. I thought they were needlessly so just for the sake of being a "filter" for the hobby. But, this build really changed my mind. There are a lot of small parts and it is a difficult build but the level of detail and recreation was amazing.
Oh God no. I hate pirates. Except space pirates. But it took me a few hours the first day and then about 8 hours today. First day I didn't take any breaks and I wore my eyes out, so I ended up stopping much sooner than I would have liked. But today my wife made me take a five minute break every hour and I was able to knuckle down and get it done.
Well, I don't have a desk job and I'm on console. So while I can sympathize, I'm not really able to offer advice.
