            We're further north than Wisconsin and sure, we don't lave "lake effect", but our winters can be pretty brutal. Yet, last winter, a small group of us flew at least once a week throughout the winter months, sometimes almost every day in some weeks. We fly off smooth, hard packed snow/ice or a plowed runway, with mostly belly skidders and planes with big tires. Criteria is warmer than -2C and winds below 10kph, use TX mitt or wear gloves - no time for other hobbies.

                  More model building than flying this summer. Sucks but Physical Therapy is a bitch and my runway got developed.

                    That sucks to hear about your runway. I know the PT is hard, but I hope you are recovering well. And, that's some beautiful work on the X-Wing.

                            Steve and George are on the money. Brandon Moon was like the initial pilot detailer out there but I think you've supplanted his style. :Cool:

                                      This forum is a logical place to start followed by RCG.
                                      Just post some examples like ya showed here to get things rollin.
                                      It's certainly not rocket science in the marketing aspect of things.
                                      There are folks that wish they had the talent or time and find it just as easy to come with open wallets as long as the price is fair.
                                      Turn that talent and passion into a financial support of that passion.
