How do you model?

I just build one at a time. Id like to be completely focused on one project or else its likely projects are going to get delayed or downgraded somehow.

I used to do only 1. Now I am training 5 g'boys to model and have 3-7 going at once depending on if they are in a school sport or not.

Definitely more than one. I currently have about 12 builds at various stages of completion.

I will simply get tired of working on one, lose interest and start on another.

Several are at a stage where the next step is going to require a degree of complexity and precision and I'm just not ready to devote the time and concentation yet.

Others I'm at a point where I have to decide which of several directions I want to go and I'm still indecisive.

Two kits have a major part I damaged and I'm not ready to spend the extra cash to buy another kit just for one part.

What is frustrating is I will get a strong desire for a new kit that is released, buy it, go "gangbusters" on it and then loose interest because of the next new kit!

 

 

I build one at a time. I just prefer to concentrate on one subject all the way through. I also wash all parts before assembly, like others have mentioned here. I have been building models on and off since I was about 10 years old and now am a senior citizen. Along the way I have developed my own method that works for me. I am still learning though. It is a great hobby. I build planes, mainly World War 2 British and German.
