What defines "Pro-built"?

[Ian M]

I can see this going around for some time...


Sorry Paul you are by your own admission a pro " you live off the profits"


I would also agree that Moni is as well to some point. She is building to an order or commission not just building for fun and selling them to make room.


Although it's nice to get a pat on the back, but could we now stop making members uncomfortable by singling them out. It's just not what we are about.


Now can we get on with it... Building sumink.

Well I've never seen them on ebay but I can think of a few I would call professional. roymattblack (roy fitzimonds) our own Polux and moni ( who has sold privately so is officially )

Errhhh....what?!?


Thank you very much, but I don't consider myself as a professional!


And I sold only two models....


One was my winter diorama, and it was without my "concentiment"


The other was the 1/6 panzer II that I changed on the model shop for some kits and paints.


Well....and there was the Jeep 1/6. I leave on the model shop just for showing. One person saw it and ask for buy it. The shopper said that the model was only as a show item, but the shop has a "professional builder" that can paint it (a new one). The man accept...


Three weeks later the shopman call me that needs help....the man who bought the jeep don't like it....


"Please, can you repaint it again...."


It wasn't a confortable work, so I will never work for another again....


And this is my story!!! I don't sold models on EBay and I am not a Pro builder

Agree, if you're good enough to make a living from them, we support you all the way...if you're like most of us, just do it for fun then we support you as well.


All hail the mighty modellers!
