Ohhhh, yes: The Neglected Kit Resurrection Groupbuild | Album by Frank Krause

Jonns Pfeiffenberger
Äh Frank, die sind doch fast alle fertig...

Frank Krause
Eben nur fast...

Jonns Pfeiffenberger
😢

Albi Hitz
ohhh ... there are a lot of them ....
But after a while I restart with one of them and all of a sudden it turned out well .... (happens this week with a Tiger I 😉 )
Never give up!

M.Julian Marles
oh yah, I have a drawer full of them!

Jonns Pfeiffenberger
thank you all, thank you Albi, I thought I have to scrap everything. You are the first to encourage me to build the scrap 🙂

Choppa Nutta
Yeah do not throw anything away ! I reckon we all thought that was a given !
Do some rapid builds with the easiest to finish and use them as scenery for the nice builds that will come later 🙂

And if you really have to scrap anything give it away to someone you like 🙂
or do some trading etc. or do some burnt out diorama pieces but never ever up end them into the bin !!

The merest thought brings tears to the eyes ! 😄

Albi Hitz
... sometimes it takes a break ....
and if it doesn't work after all, it good for tials (winter camos, washes, zimmerit,
.... nothing is for nothing!

Augie
we all have them... lol

Choppa Nutta
what ? tears in our eyes when we hear about people threatening to chuck models in to the bin ? 🙂

M.Julian Marles
The threee R's: resurrect, repaint, relax!

My Steyr RSO/03 from Revell. Laying around since 3 years with Friul tracks and PEs, partially assembled and painted and just a couple of weeks ago I decided to scrap it but still kept it for some unknown reasons...

M.Julian Marles
you should keep it! it's still more dimensionally accurate then Dragon's, at least for the cabin...and no M113 seats :*

Robbie
I posted my bookcase of procrastination

Choppa Nutta
"bookcase of procrastination" lol 🙂
sounds like my "index of indifference" or my "shelves of sloth"

M.Julian Marles
drawers of denial

Choppa Nutta
Boxes of binge buying 🙂

Possibly one of our problems is that we end up buying to many models and flit around between them and then loose steam and get muddled up with what we want to do next and then it's a bout of procrastinations & sloth and then of course denial....

Choppa Nutta
how about this for an idea, The Neglected Kit Resurrection Group Build !

where neglected unfinished models are brought back to life and completion, any scale, type etc. it just has to be started at least a year ago or more 🙂

Choppa Nutta
and oh yeah for a little irony, you can take as long as you like ! lol 🙂

M.Julian Marles
sounds good

Choppa Nutta
M.Julian Marles, time to empty those drawers of denial 🙂
