I have a few creative hobbies. The main ones are illustration, assembling scale models and photography.
The examples here are:
1. An airbrushed illustration of a tiger (Used a fine brush for some minor areas, like whiskers)
2. A 1/48 scale aircraft I assembled and painted
3. A photo of an approaching storm over Barwon Heads/Ocean Grove.

I don’t want them back I’m trying to clean out my wardrobes 🤣
That's what I have been doing . I xant believe what I've accumulated.

I've so far cleaned out my linen cupboard, my huge laundry cupboard, today my bedroom draws which I got rid of 137 tops 🙃 😅 hubby saw them on the floor and asked where did they all come from 😇 .

Now it's my built in.

I just wished there was someone to give them to . Most are new with tags on.

It feels so good to declutter.

I can't believe how quick the kitchen guy is
 
Joined a Botanical gardens some years ago now and now lead a flourishing crew of mature aged ones intent on taking advantage of natures physical , emotional and mental strains of vast enjoyment,went from just trying something to becoming an essential part of finding the answer to a chaotic peaceful environment lol
 
What a wonderful hobby to have how lucky you are to have such green thumbs that you lead your workers. My interests are Reading, walking, indoor bowling, singing, ukulele, choir and taichi.

My hobbies have been musical, (drumming to age 40 when arthritis took over), demoted to the front lines I became lead singer of a band, moved to a mining town where no bands played the country music I sang so I became resident DJ for 7 years in the club there, was just gaining a reputation as a wedding presenter where I was doing weddings in outer-lying towns when I suffered a right side vocal chord paralysis. Thus my music side has come to a sudden halt.
I have been doing house renovations for 54 years and now at 76 still do hobby handyman projects.
I still enjoy fishing (when I can get out)
I have previously related to this group how I'm a "survivor".😆

So much going on for you "Flash". I hope you find more time for your fishing though l'm not sure how you can fit it in.

Was out twice a week(average) in Port Pirie. Been in Adelaide 11yrs for 31 trips and a total of 7 whiting here where I would often get my quota back home.
Yes, I gotta do more fishing 🎣 😫 🙄
