Okay;

     What is that? Do the pilots actually have an open cockpit? OY 

Worst ever- Historic Plastic Models Pe-2 bomber in 1/48th... More like Horrible Plastic Models.  The fit was awful but the biggest issue was the fusilage was warped and lopsided.

I got it together somehow. Completed photos are PhotoBucket so I'm not sure I can even access them now. And the model is buried in a box in my stash. 

Anyway the kit is on the super sale at Sprue Brothers for a little less than thirty bucks US if you want your own. If I had the money I'd buy another and run over it with my car...

That's easy--1/48, Monogram B-58 Hustler. Warped wings and engine pods, Terrible fit of parts. I got part way throuigh the build and put it on the Shelf of Doom for a year. I pulled it off the shelf this year and  had to go to the hardware store and buy a big clamp in order the squeeze the wing to match the curve of the fuselage. 

I finally finished it last month.

Monogram P-61. 

Johnny, Your Hustler turned out beautifully though. Especially given how poorly it fit, and how much of a challenge it was.

Revell 1/32nd scale P-47.  The sagging wings was more than my 11 year old modeling skills could handle.  Nothing I tried worked.  I finally just slapped some paint and decals on it and called it good.  I hung it from my ceiling and it was a constant reminder of my utter failure.  However, revenge was sweet.  When I was fifteen I received a double barrel 20 gauge shotgun and the sagging winged P-47 met a violent end while sailing across the pasture.  

 The worst, NOT completed...some name I don't recall, but it was a 1/72 F-82(not Monogram). Got the kit for a buck. I got s'dang mad at it...I went to the garage, grabbed a shovel and burried that SOB in the back yard...repacking the dirt extra hard.

 There have been several old, junk kits that I didn't even proceed with, to the point of frustration...into the bin and on to the next.

 The worst that did get completed...Modelcrafts 1/48 F-82. TERRIBLE!!! I beat it though, and it even made the Reader Gallery! (Oct 09 IIRC) Everything after that has been "gravy", by comparison.

I'm' going to divide mine up between NOT completed and COMPLETED like Fermis did.

NOT completed......AMT 66 Barracuda Hemi Under Glass. Hands down worst kit ever. Body was great but the fit and location of everything once it did go together was crap. Didn't even bother continuing and I SOOOO wanted to build a HUG car.

COMPLETED-Revell '54 Chevy Panel Wagon and Revell '56 Ford F-100 (older release that was NOT the Foose version-Foose version=Perfection) Both of these sumbitches just did NOT want to go together. Fought me all the way to the end. Both turned out ok but I don't know how.

Most frustrating?  Everything I've ever tried from Kitty Hawk.

 

Me too. I've sworn off helicopters because of them. 

But the most troublesome kit I've ever done was the RPM Minenraumer. It was just a pile of plastic that they threw in the box and expected you to make something from it. And the pity is, I tried building it two different times, with the same result. The trash can.

I keep hearing that about Kitty Hawk. The main complaint that I’m seeing are the fit issues.

Revell P-61 Black Widow.

 

I second that!

Mirage Hobby Panzer II L "Luchs".

I finished it, but that's all. No weathering just basic paint.

Its seems to me that there are quite a few bad aircraft models, more than tanks anyway.

The worst model ive made is the 1/35 Academy early Tiger I.
