How many models have you built?

Personally, Ive only built 4, but that numbers about to skyrocket :)

I've built about 10-20. But out of them only about 9 turned out looking good. The rest have been trashed.

lol
i know how that is
im just now scrapping a buick grand national
ive been working on
the first two coats of paint were beautiful
but i screwed up the 3rd
but hey
ill make $11 this week- i can buy another :):finger:

450, give or take 50...Still not a master-builder! :)

Must be more than 30 :) since I started building kits when I was about 9. Most of those kits were tanks and military planes, which in turn got blown up some time or another.

:D

Recently built 7 kits in about 3 months. The more recent ones turned out better than the earlier ones (for obvious reasons) :)

:alien2:

all in all... near 40.... but i was yong and result arent really good

Since i restarted 6 mount ago, i have 11 model done.... 11 looked good :D

if I count them on my shelf they are 49
maybe 20 in some box awaiting for restoration and a good dozen that are unbuilt or i am building

I have aproximately 70 model more than that in 30 minutes

hahaha:p

you beast! how could you scrap the best looking model ever!

I would be guessing at least several hundred for me, likely more. I did my first one when I was 6 or seven and havent stopped building since. I have a hundred or so unbuilt, and about 50 built that have survived a couple moves and general mistreatment. My first one was an `82 Trans Am (it was a brand new kit back then) and i tried to paint all the parts after I built it. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

hawk312 say:and i tried to paint all the parts after I built it

not a very good idea


I now have 15 more models youhou:flipa: :flipa: (j/k)

I've built 7 metal models, I finishsed a 1/24 Tamiya model, and now I'm working on a 300ZX. I have about 20-25 models that have not been finished.

Gee,I guess 3 or 4 hundred since the 50's. I've "lost" several
collections over the years ! I have about 50 built up and on display another 50 or 60 packed away awaiting more display areas and about 150 unbuilt ,and thats not counting diecasts !!
:bandit: Mike

400 hundred

400,000? :coolguy: :D

I scrapped the Grand National because i totaly screwed up the paint job, but i just primed a Shebly Series 1 and it looks like its going to come out really nice
& yellow!

:eek: If I could remember past last year I could tell you how many I have, but being only 15 I THINK I have....6 completed, 2 on the way, about 10 in a box, all trashed(:rolleyes: don't know how that happened). Plans to buy 2 from a model shop in Singapore :confused:. I got a nice FTO coming along, wish I could get some pics on here to show you, its got a completely scratchbuilt exaust pipe and a REAL big muffler, and tip..anyway that aint the point....

Why buy from Singapore when you can get in Australia?

Because there aren't very good model selections here, besides Revells, AMTs & Tamiya...Not many good kits of Japanese cars, and I have been to a site and seen the selection there....Its alot better for Japanese cars...I was thinking an Aoyishima Soarer & Maybe a Hilux lift-up. Being only 15 I dont have a credit card to order over the net if your wondering. At least I can get SOME afttermarket parts, mufflers, wheels metal accesories etc here in Oz

My friend is going to Singapore, in about 2 months or something. Do you know of any good model shops in Singapore that my friend might be able to visit? I mostly need accesories & my friend wants models. Any help would be great as we really wouldn't know where to go/start.

first car model was a 67 impala SS that was on sale for 5 bucks at payless. i just bought it on an impulse since im kinda an impulsive person. i did an ok job i think for a first timer and i was 10. i painted the engine bright neon orange. second was a shelby cobra which sucked ass. i use that as my practice car for painting. i just find an open spot and paint on it...haha. next was a porshae turbo..older one.. and then about a year ago i got a z3 and did so horribly that i just went all out on it with a hammer in frustration..aaaand... my latest was the ever so popular revell integ type r. best model ive done so far.

so ive done 5 models total in the last 7 years. modelfan1 you better watch out im gaining on ur 500 fast!:sun:
