Modeling Rules??

[fullbloodchop01]

What are the biggest modeling rules you have to keep in mind when making a model>?:ylsuper :aug2:

[flyonthewall]

Don't sniff all the glue in one session, save some for another day!!!

But seriously - Number 1 IMO is... PATIENCE!!!...

i.e, you will become a mental patient if you sniff too much glue.:finger:

Check twice, cut once.

To me, it's only work on your model when you've got the mood for it. Don't model when you don't feel like it.

Some here would say the golden rule is use primer.

1.) BE PATIENT
2.) DO NOT FORCE YOURSELF
3.) WORK ON ONE PROJECT AT A TIME
4.) WORK SAFELY

Those are the four I follow

... haha JJ... I say patients is the biggest thing to remember take your time

[primera man]

Take your time.
Set a goal for the day as to what you want to do and make sure you are in the mood to do it.
Then lock yourself away so you cant be disturbed. Nothing i hate more is people visiting/phones ringing etc etc half way through painting a part.
I lock all the doors, turn the phone off etc before i start.

Make sure the colors match and always know where the hobby knife is

I agree on both accounts, primer rules.
For some reason I haven't been in the modeling mood for the past 2 months

It's really more of a primer grey rule than a golden one...
