What do you guys model when taking a break from cars?
G'day lads,
As the title implies, just wondering what other car-nuts build when having a break from cars...to kick it off, I've got an 1:35 Abrams M1A1 tank waiting in line patiently....

Re: What do you guys model when taking a break from cars?
Resin figures for me... but most of the time all my progects are going at once...
Since it gets a little hectic with 3 or more 100+peice car models on my modeling desk... figures help lessen the peice count. Cars and gals... what more can a guy want lol.

Re: What do you guys model when taking a break from cars?
I model pretty much anything.
I just got done w/ a 1/35 MH-60G Pavehawk helicopter, and now Im working on a 54mm resin fighter pilot figure. Im also working on a Tamiya 1/12 Ducati 916, among other things. Haven't done any cars this year, but I did 14 or 15 1/24 nascar cars last year.

I'm also a model railroader, and I actually started in that well before I started building cars.

Re: What do you guys model when taking a break from cars?
I build bikes for my uncle. From tricycles to road racing bikes and cruisers, I can build any types of bikes. Other than that, nothing really, just busy with work and all.

Re: What do you guys model when taking a break from cars?
I tend to do fantasy figures in 1/8 & 1/6 scale see below for a couple of examples.
I am also building a lot of resin and metal sci fi & historic figures for the Frontier models web site. The 1:1 Alien pulse rifle is one of mine.    http://www.frontiermodels.co.uk/Repl...p-1-c-327.html
