Projects that you will never finish... pics
OK, in another thread here, Rick (aka MarkIV) came up with this idea for a new thread... we've all got projects that are on the back burner and would like to someday complete (well, DON'T WE?? Is it just ME??). Perhaps I should only speak for myself, but I know full-well that many of these will never see proper display status.
Here is one (of many) of mine to start the ball rolling. I'm almost ashamed to say that I started this one OVER 20 YEARS AGO. **MAYBE** I'll finish it some day... (yeah, as if...)
It's an old Revell 1:32 UH-1D, and it's the one Rick spoke of when he said that I've been dragging it out of the back of the model closet for years now. It's been so long now that pieces are starting to fall off it and some parts, such as the door-gunner's bench, are starting to warp. Here's a close-up of the same photo (I just took the picture a few minutes ago):
I don't know whether to tear it apart and rebuild it, continue as planned, or just abandon it and start a new one. At one point I decided not to start any new projects until I finished an old one, but this has placed me at a stand-still. Maybe I need to just put this one aside and start a new project.
Let's see what everyone ELSE has hidden from view. Come on, blow some of that dust away and show us what you've ALMOST got! (Doesn't have to be helicopters, either, although feel free to start a similar thread in another category... Rick?? I could probably come up with a few old unfinished car models, as well...)
