Bad habits...
So whats everyones bad modelling habits? Mine are that im too damn messy and that I don't breath when I'm painting something that requires a lot of concentration (I'm still waiting for the day when I paint a whole set of window stripping, I'll be dead before I finish).

I don't take the time to paint a body properly. I don't like to let the paint cure and then polish it. I want it done now. I'm trying to buck this habit, though.

-focusing on other things rather then what im working on
-patients=none

-try to mod./fix something and end up making it worse (tried to turbo my taurus SHO [never happened] and ended up loosing my radiator hoses.)

Not finishing what I started. I like to work on several kits at a time, but sometimes I find a cool kit I've been searching for or get a cool idea about how to build another kit I have, and I stop work on other projects and start new ones. And that repeats usually once a month. Right now got a Supra engine built, two VIP car chassis built, F40 body done, GT3 chassis done, and 962 body all puttied up. I'm praying like hell that nothing distracts me before I finish the Mitsu GTO I'm working now (80% done).

I'd have to say...
  • Sometimes painting a little thick on the body
  • Sometimes cap is not put back on. ( for about 2 - 10 mins)
  • Money.. difficulties
  • Sometimes I rush a little..
  • I don't wait for panit to FULLY DRY..
  • No respirator mask so I breath in too much of the paint
I think that's all I can think of so far..
