You need to upload your pics to an online image hosting site, such as Image Shack or Photobucket, they offer free hosting up to a pretty large limit. I use Photobucket and created a tutorial on how to post using it:

/forums/654172/ShowPost.aspx

Note that since the tutorial was made they deleted the tabs for image/videos and you can now upload both using the same interface. They've also added automatic copying of the IMG tags which eliminates the need to copy the tag.

So long folks!

Pics coming soon as I get a digital camera.  Once I figure how to get them on here I'll be sure to include some that have been requested before including the B-wing and Sulaco.

Those are quick, fun builds. At one point I had all of them. Any pics?

My cure for "workbench blah"s

I doubt they'd be contest-winners, but I try to put a good bit of detailing into my models.  Despite my "assembly line" approach ( moving on to another kit while the first one of the night has cement, putty, paint drying, etc. ) giving some variety, I still get to the point that I've worked on the models for a while and feel rather apathetic because of the slow progress.

 Anyone else get that feeling?  Sometimes the results of a few sessions seem not enough for the time put in and a wierd mix of boredom or apathy for a project sets in and it goes in storage for a while.

 I think I found my cure.  Recently I ordered some of the old small-scale Star Blazers ships.  In one weekend I had 3 with primer coats and 4 more halfway through building.  All this AND progress on some of the bigger projects that have been in the works!  The results on the mini-kits were immediate and gave some motivation to get more done on the ones in storage.
