how many models do you have??

I have a total of about 20-30, I cant remember right now. I will find out later. But lets see, it could be neat.

As of now, i have 38 with 4 on thier way...i can't wait!

Holy frig...I have like 3 :D:D

I have about a dozen car models. I have about 30 old sci-fi models in various states of disrepair packed away at my parents' house.

Edits in purple.

55 made up.
1 being built
10 in boxes to be made yet

...and 12 bikes i have done too

19 fully finished in 2 scales.

About another 20 in boxes in a semi started or yet to be built stage!

Damn, break a leg could have a whole new meaning in modelling!!!

I really get back into it in winter. Although this year I have a job and homework, so it might not happen a whole lot.

I have 2 finished ones and one in progress and 4 on the way, plus one i am going to buy today..hahahaha. This is worst than my crack rock addiction...haha :smoker2:




i am kidding about the crack rock, its actually Heroin..haha just kidding

I have 26 models that are done, plus a batmobile and about 10 boats and planes.

One finished car and currently starting on my first bike..I am slow:smoker2:

5 complete
about 7 not finished or started.

Not exactly sure, but I should be around 90 or so.

Oh no...I have more than 300 and 90% were 1/24 cars......is it a kind of mental illness? @_@

Holy shit...i thought i was bad....where the hell did you put them all ??

I thought I was going to get picked on for having so many, now I don't feel as bad.

Maybe he added one to many zero's and it should have been 30 :confused: :confused: :confused: ....thats a hell of a lot :bloated: :bloated:

I don't know man. But if all you have is your hobby, then I guess it is possible to reach up there.

Hey LauBak, how about some pics of your collection?:)

He can do better than that, he has a website! http://laubak.50g.com/

Warren! 30? Come on! We have more than that in boxes!
I think Lau has more than that on his website!
He's the man!:D

Yeah, I noticed that!

But who cares!
Damn, this guy is so good with that camera and has 300 models!
I hate him already!:mad: j/k

Holy hell....if that site dont get me in the mood nothing well :flash: :flash: :flash:

Works for me everytime! Check out those R34s! And that Blue 360 is back again!!!:D

Some of them were in a store room of my dad's office and most of my favourites were in my rooms. It could be terrible becoz they often fall down when I was in deep dreams.(hey it hurts!) And of coz...my mom give big pressure on me.

I think you have a better inventory than some of the model stores that our members are shopping in. :rolleyes:

I can't inagine you'll ever get bored!!! :eek:

That makes me seem insufficient. I hope to one day have 1000 models. Do you save your boxes?? And you do have a disease (all of this was directed to Laubak)

Oh I'm sorry I should say that was my typing mistake from 30 :flipa:

Yes I keep box. They should less than 50.

Lau! From what I see in your pictures I am jealous of...

The Paris Dakar Peugeot 405 T16! (Did this kit when I was young and inexperienced! Would love to do it again properly!)

The 1/12 Lancia Stratos! Just because!:)

And what is that Calsonic sponsored car next to the 2 Stratos'? Is it a GT-R?

Here shops have plenty of Pioneer 405 . And stratos are less but still some stocks.BTW, Hasegawa will issue the Stratos and Tamiya will have their Z concept very soon. ;)

Yes the Calsonic is a R32 GTR. I also own a STP Taisan R32, that's exactly same as my 1/24 one.

Sorry I can't get your meaning. I'm just a lazy Institute student and my English suck.

It's lucky for me as I can easily buy the latest kits; but it's hard to find some old kits. I'd love to find a Hasegawa Lancer Ev?, HK-Beijing Rally but it never appear here.

Maybe offtopic, but who cares. Here, modeling is a kind of childish, fool and waste of time. Kits are toys. :right:

That's what I meant, is there anything you would like that you can't find!

Can't say I have ever seen that one!

As for models being toys, some of my mates joke that I stay in playing with cars, but then are really interested when they see them! One guy even wants me to do a kit like his Alfa for him! (Yeah right! As if I would let a kit I spent hours making ever leave my place!)

Once,, I did kit for my brother. It turned out good, so I wanted to keep it.Teh bastard took it. I have since got it back, but I will never do it again.

LauBak, do you have any specific things someone should look at to improve modeling skills (a book, magazine, whatever)

I had never buy any books about models. I only got one rally book.
A book is not cheap for me. They can be much expensive than a kit. I beleve "Pratice makes perfect" so prefer to buying a kit but not a book.

You can see my best products in web but you'll never understand how many kits were failed.

I have to say the same as Lau, reading cannot get you used to the techniques involved, and we will never stop learning!

A few books have helped me, and the techniques on Tamiya's website are a great help!
Ask us guys here, we will always offer the best advice we know!:)

Ditto....it all takes time and practice.
The more you do the better you will become.
Every model is something new and exciting to learn and do.

Top right one.

Top right one. That's a Fujimi Mugen Integra Type R. It's the same car the pkw1 featured in his first thread (adding hood scoop). That Mugen kit will get the engine from the Revell ITR kit.

:bloated: :bloated: FYI: HLJ has it spelled wrong in their database. Here's a link: 1/24 Honda Mugen Ingtegra (http://www.hlj.com/cgi-local/hljpage.cgi?FUJ03448)

years to build some model car kit 1/24.....
110 models car customized......
200 in box...... in long wait...
400 wheels kit...
the only problem is that I work hard and not enough time to build them.....

lol, 2, maybe pics soon:bandit:

:eek:

You guys are way ahead of me. I have 4 completed cars, 1 completed motorbike, 1 kit in progress and 3 waiting to be built.

:alien2:

I have 48 completed, including diecasts.
3 un-built and hopefully 1 on the way (italeri or revell 512TR)

I guess my "sickness" is pretty bad too! I have a about 60 kits waiting to be built (but about half of those are in various stages of completion) and like 6 kits that are actually finished :D I should have another 3-4 done by the end of the week though

My update is...
72 cars built
10 bikes built
1 being built
20 waiting to be made
2 more kits that should arrive this week
8 wheel sets
5 wheels sets ordered today

Holy Sh!t Jay ive looked at that car dozens of times and ive just noticed that when you pointed it out

i have about 60 customized 2 box stock 25 projects(mainly reconstruction)7 modified diecasts(including my latest project a 1:18 scale Flame throwing 51 merc)and 4 or 5 painting bodies

Well, i'm way way behind all of you guys. I have a total of five kits:

1 about 60% complete
1 about 30% complete
2 have half the parts primed and ready to paint
and the last one still in the box.

I've been taking my time since I want to make all mine good in my eyes.

Well, i'm way way behind all of you guys. I have a total of five kits

thats ok dude i had 3 kits when i first started. 9 years later only one of those survived a 58 impala mild custom that still remains the way i built it. with those 9 years i built somewhere around 100 cars 40 of those cars were built to be sold to friends. the remaining 60 are mine and some will see the sales lot soon.

It takes time to gather a collection skill also comes as a reward


i forgot to mention i have around APPX. 250 hotwheels

Hmmz..
I'm starting to feel weird.. Busy for 1,5 months...
finished 2, today possible #3.
6 waiting.. and more paint then I could use... but it's a start...
