Confession # 1
I've destroyed a good number of kits out of anger and frustration while doing
custom body work. As a result, I have a bunch of untouched kits that
have missing car bodies.
Confession # 2
I tried to return to the hobby in 2013 and proceeded to paint a car body without primer (which I never do) because I was lazy. The paint job came out nice and I followed it up with masking tape to paint the black trim. Upon painting the trim, I lifted the masking tape along with my nice paint job.
That resulted in me resuming my car modeling break.
Don't skimp on the primer boys.
