Frustrations! ARGH!

Do you guys ever feel frustrated when modeling? Especially when u get a real smooth and nice paint job and just before u go to clear coat.. it gets ruined? haha

well that's what happened to me! and when i went to recoat it.. it went on smooth but HAZY... WTF!!! i guess it might have been too humid or something.

yeah i got pissed off when i sprayed my ITR which i paid 35 dollars CANADIAN which is a god-damned lot of cash! with chrome spray paint from testor's, i sprayed my light base coat, etc etc, then i touched it with my thumb and the grease from my thumb totally bugged up the roof.......so then i chopped the roof after many deliberation's....i sprayed clear coat ontop to see if it would protect my paint, all it did was thin it out! now i've got a super ugly paint job on my itr and my decal's and shiznit are already in place........it's too late........im really angry now........what made me even more pissed off, is the fact i loaned my "friend" 100 buck's till yesterday when he got paid, the asshole went and spent all his money on getting drunk on the weekend and his cheap sleazy girlfriend who never leave's him alone, now im flat broke without any fund's to even pay for gas in my car, my credit card is maxed out because of my car (boingo, i got my cavalier back but i had to buy new part's for it as insurance woul dnt pay for them, my rim's and front bumper which was addon.......i did not inform insurance that i got those) .........for those of you which are wondering what happens to my car? some woman in a 4x4 off road dodge ram drove over top my car, squashed the f ront of it FLAt as she dr ove over it with both wheel's and proceeded to drive away like she didnt notice!!.........my wheels were squashed to the pavement and then scr aped sideway's........the stupid insurance company didnt even write it off, they gave me mo ney to repair it (dumfuks!)......anyway's............im out now gotta go do something entertaining (porn), cya'lls l 8r

1) I dropped glue on the trunk lid of a perfectly polished Coutach with a complete engine detail and interior.
2) I used a wrong (taller) screw to fix the inner door panel of Fujimi Diablo, leaving a bump on the left side door.
Both require total repainting...

1.) Didn't mask enough when spraying black onto my already-Ferrari Red mythos. As a result got lots of black overspray onto sections that had to be taken off with isopropyl alcohol...future had to be reapplied..still is very bumpy in places.

2.) Attempted to paint black lines on 300ZX with paint brush, no masking (ouch!!)

3.) Dad picked up my bike and somehow managed to make the lower cowl fall into pieces, which I had to reassemble

I could go on for days

NO, i beat all you guys. Up until finding this forum, I never used primer, and I used 1 coat of generic spray paint. Only shook the can for 5 seconds, sprayed on heavily in certain spots. And then I used 150 grit sandpaper to remove paint from my messed up models!

HA!

that's not that bad... back then i didn't know of spray cans or airbrushes.... try hand-painting a car body and wonder why it doesn't look as nice as other people's models and get all frustrated trying to make the paint job look nice... hahahaha

yeah...

Broke the windshield right down the middle on a completely done Nissan Primera (Calsonic) when I was installing it. This was the last thing I had to do (I had already done the black trim on the glass!). Pissed, pissed, pissed. Sometimes I just want to grab all of my stuff and set it on fire so it burns into a large black lump of plastic. Then I'll be satisfied.

If you saw the carpet in my old bedroom, you'd see my frustrations. When I was about 13, I tryed spray painting my models on the carpet. Not only is it stupid to do that, but I didn't use hardly any newspaper. I've spilled paint plenty of times on the carpet as well. At least I don't sleep in that room anymore, plus I'm going to college in a year, so I don't even care about it anymore. Besides, we're going to get carpet added one day, so I might as well mess it up as much as possible.
