    Re-Visiting old Builds

    Starting next week I’ll be visiting my old builds that I have not completed. I hope you Guys don’t mind the clutter and some may frown on this because some are quite old but I don’t care I need to get these finished before moving on to any new builds. Thanks for understanding. I may have a couple completed this weekend.

    Sounds like a plan Lee. I think a few of us on here have some old builds, part-builds and builds that could be gone back to and added to.

    Look forward to see what you deliver.

        I am just as intrigued to see what turns up as I have been doing the same.

                Some? - quite embarrassing the number of part builds that I have populating my stash - some I lost interest in, some shelved because something more exciting caught my eye, and those that had a fatal flaw/error, that I won't admit to - thinking - " I'll get back to that, some time "

                  That's the good thing about not having a stash I only have one build at a time.

                    Hi Lee
                    It's always nice to complete a stalled build. I'll look forward to seeing what you have to finish.

                      I'm with Dave here 150%.....I am terrible at finishing things and he hit the nail on the head. I don't have enough fingers and toes to even begin counting what I need to finish from the stash...........The horror, the horror!!!.............

                        Mr Dewire,
                        You need to sit at your bench and take a deep breath, you have a lot of builds I would like to see finished, so stop starting new things and crack on lol. :smiling::smiling:

                          How I envy you. I was nearly at a stash count of zero once. It's something I strive towards.

                              I pursue my model making as a hobby - if I'm not enjoying something, or lose interest, it's no longer a hobby - it's a chore! :worried: I have a wide range of interests & models of all genres in my stash, which means I can consign part built models as shelf queens, and move onto something more to my liking straight away. I admit it can be laziness that prevents me from picking these derelicts up, but as I said it's a hobby, I've retired, and the days of being chivvied to finish a project are happily long gone! :smiling4:
