>>116304621st for the most recent 1/25 scale build you did
>>11630462nice bulge
>>11630462Thanks for coming through. I wasn't in time to make a thread. I had a late meeting that just finished.
Whats the longest you've gone from starting and finishing a model? I just picked one up after 4 years and it was basically 95% done when I stopped.
>>11630726I started this in November of last year, got bored of it, put it back in the box and haven't touched it since
>>116307266 years. But I have several more from that time that are still waiting, so...
>>11630726I have shit from like 2012 still.
>>11630726I have a conqueror ready for priming since big liz died I have changed 3 jobs since
>>11630741The engine is nice but I can see why you did>>11630945>>11630953>>11630988cmon lads crack those models out. The petrol tank and a couple of decals is all I needed to do for this 4 year one. I can't remember why I even put it down. I think I got annoyed with not knowing how best to paint it? Or something to do with painting white over grey primer. The white portion even came out too thick but whatever. A decal will hide the minimal tape bleed.
>>11630994>cmon lads crack those models out.Most of these are sitting because the dioramas I had planned got cancelled for different reasons or I let my gf build something, but she doesn't like the painting, so that was left to me which I have not gotten to.
>unironically hating 70's Seiko
>>11630994No, I have better things to do like buying kits, starting them and leaving them in my stash for years
on the shelf of shame for years
>>11631004i keep seeing this pic, but i dont get it. who is this?
>>11631197trumpeter has these weird images on the corners of their flimsily glued boxes for 1/72 ground vehicles
>>11631197John Trumpeter
do you guys like metal tracks for your tanks or do you prefer to have your dick flattened instead
>>11631197Peter Trum. He thinks it's funny for you to build an 1600 piece abomination only for it to have real life inaccuracies.
>>11631178>1/32 revell
>>11631178The model or that disgusting coffee cup?
