Confession

Please forgive me it has been 5 months since my last completed model.

After building the 1:12 scale skyline I have been unable to get back into the mood to make 1:24 scale models, I have the kits sitting there but just cant get into build mode.

so heres the point of this thread. I need motivation, so whatever you can do to motivate me would be greatly apreciated as the R34 GTR sitting on my bench requires action, as does the pugeot rally car beside it. Both are using PE parts so should be good.














HELP ME

please

Re: Confession

Some motivation... hmm. Well, as you're a moderator I think you got quiet some skills. How about buildig the most exciting R34 ever??? A awesome driftmachine, like we've never seen... That would be motivating IMO

Re: Confession

Don't you love us anymore?


(look, look at the despair in their beautifull eyes, and listen to your heart: won't you let them come into life?...)

...
Seriously, if you don't have the mood to build, don't build! Just clean up your workbench, put these kit boxes away from your eyes, and let yourself think about something else... Let yourself forget them.
-Time passing-
And then, one day, you'll find this boxes somewhere in your house - Oh! What's that? - and it will be as a first met. And maybe you'll fall in love again, and maybe you'll be ready for another love story, the time of a build.



Even more seriously, here's opened the Tazdev Contest: the one who will finish one of these two kits during the next few weeks will be the winner. Important: the models have to be the one that are on your workbench!



Finally...

There's a die-cast forum here on AF, don't you know?...

You're here to moderate us, we're here to motivate you!
Pug threads on AF: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...earchid=362560
R34 threads on AF: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...earchid=362556

Please, I want to use one of those in one of your again!

Believe me: there's a life after R32.

That's enough for today. Let's go back to bed now...

if it fails.. just give me a call and tell me when do you want me to come and pick them up :LOL

Something motivating... "Go work on your damn models now and finish them before we..."




Just kidding, I'll think of something motivating.

Re: Confession

well the car show I was getting ready for has been and gone. I had the 1:12 scale GTR I had made on the roof of my car and got more looks and comments at that than my 1:1 car

Met Pman again as his car was also on display and had a good chat (told him to drag his ass back here aswell )



best pic I have of the 1:12 GTR on show

Re: Confession

Damn! You and P-man have really changed! I didn't remember he had such long hairs... and such pretty legs!!!!




I know that's stupid, but ...

Just have a try at figure modeling... 1:12 cheerleader figure on the engine hood of your 1:12 GTR would definitively make your 1:1 invisible!...
