I know you guys are picky with topics but I would like to show you a model i'm working on. Its a old model of the U-Boat and costed me $20 for this nice model. I wanted something to build so I got a U-Boat which could have been outfitted with a engine but I had no engine so it will be my model.

 

For those of you who likes models enjoy. Btw on my second post i'll show you the completed pictures of it.

Very nice. I can appreciate the effort in making it look good.

 

I used to model WW2 aircraft way back when I was smaller, but never would paint them because I was too afraid I would make a mess of it and ruin them. I still have them all grey and bare hanging in my old room.

 

I look forward to seeing how it turns out.

I have all of the old British WW2 fighters as well as the Enterprise model(from "enterprise"), Also i am getting a millenium falcon or ISD if i can find one.

lol I dont paint mine unless I think its worth it. I dont have good painting skills so I rarely paint mine. I'll post pictures of my other models but they're falling apart since I used them as action models or tried fixing them

The nearly completed U-Boat, just tiny little details which also were a pain to add (So damn small that not even my tweezers could hold it), Look carefully.

Looks great. It's really taken shape.

good job, how long did it take? and i dont know what is the matter with you guys and paint, i just dump a whole cartoon of paint on my finished pieces. phhfft ameatuers.... even though i havent bought a model in forever, i sat on my last one

It would of taken one day but it took 2 days. Other models took 1 day. I like building models. I cant pain since I dont have the right paint or paint brush stuff.

Just spray or paint the top black and put U-571 on it.

I got old model paints which would just damage the looks of the model Maybe later when I get more models i'll get spray paint and get better with building models and have a place to put em all.

I've got a model Venator Star destroyer. But isn't painted yet and I haven't got a Didgital camera.

well you could use them cheap cams then get them printed or put on a floppy disc then upload them at photobucket.com

 

lol well Venator Star Destroyer........ is that from Episode 3 ? Well the only Star wars model is this one,

Well I'm not sure where exactly you can find them....I found them in my local toy shop (shut up, just shut up.)

They're being done by Revell, and in addition to the venator there's also the ARC-170, the AT-RT, the Tri-fighter, and the Jedi Interceptor.

Toys R Us, best place to try and get what you want Nothin wrong with that place until you go into the kids section when your suposed to go to the lego or model section or game section

Well I found my model in a small one-store place at the shopping centre.

I do have a video recorder with a photo feature, I'll see if I can figure out how to hook it up to my comp.

Best place is the internet.

Well it may be but you could find pretty nice models in stores. Your models are camera shy ?

I went hunting for em last night. I realised that I may have them but they're not complete.

I never was really good with glueing, painting or putting on stickers so i used legos way back when. Ive got a corellian corvette one with like 3,000+ pieces i think, it took me 2 1/2 hours to build, i got it for christmas about 5 years ago, now it sits on my shelf collecting dust.

Lol, lego good old Lego.
