Not as much time to build as I would like so I never have more than 2 going at any one time.

[george 53]

I have probably 6-7 in various stages of completion at any given time. If I run into an engineering problem on one, I'll put it down and work on another.

Yep, that's me too. Never seem to get any FINISHED, that's my problem!!!!

Well put, George I was just going thru some of my half built, half painted kits this morning.

I just got my modeling desk set up in my new place, and I'm already getting the urge.

There are so many I need to finish.......

[Jantrix]

Hmm..............I've just surprised myself by only counting six WIP models. There are a couple others where I've glued some a part or two together, but those models could be off in another direction in a second design-wise so they don't count much.

'49 Merc - Jolly Roger
F-Bomb inspired '79 Camaro
'53 Stude Panamericana racer
'49 Ford hot rod
Custom Batmobile
and my scratchbuild WW3 scout vehicle.

Wait....there's too many WIPS?

Uh-oh, I think I may be in trouble...

I used to have three or more at any given time. I soon found that nothing got finished and most would be back in the box to make way for something else. Now I force myself to do only one at a time, and just focuse on that one project.

[Jodah]

I currently have about 6 going. Most are in the beginning stages. My post apoc kenworth is a major project. Extending the sleeper, frame, adding extra fuel tanks etc. I basically try to work on a different one every day. Helps me keep interest in them. Unless of course I get on a roll with one.

Right now, I have 6 cars, two semis and 7 1/72 scale aircraft, one 1/144 Saturn 5 rocket and one 1/350 USS Missouri out, on the benches and tables, in various stages of completion... I have 'Modelers ADD' and cannot concentrate on one at a time...

[Malard]

I have four right now two 70's Boss Mustangs, the Revell 1/12 Shelby, interior work on a 50' Ford Pickup. Like a few other have said I like to work on one while the others dry or cure at which ever stage im at with them.

I find that if I just work on one build, I get bored with it, and then that leads to wanting to get it done faster, and that leads to a build that is not done right, or sloppy .

Couldnt have said it better myself.

It's nothing for me to have 4, 5, or 10 going at once. I think all the projects sitting around in various stages of completion are nice to look at. The WIP's I worry about are the ones in the box under the bed.

[Badluck 13]

....Me???,I only got one or two maybe twenty at the most going on....................

[JamesW]

I'm only counting this in my head so I may be off by 1 or 2, but at any given time I have about 15 in some sort of incompletion.

[Tom Setzer]

I Have several in progress at the moment, but I have had to put them all on hold due to falling and breaking my hip in march and then fracturing my thigh bone just as I was getting on my feet causing it to all have to be done over.

I was working on building a correct 69 Yenko 427 Nova SC (Lethal) for the Revell/ Gearz Contest starting with the COPO kit.
69 NOVA Street machine, using The totally wrong Revell NOVA SS YENKO.
Two 1930s Gow Job Roadsters Total Kit Bashes.
25 T Chopped to Coupe, Using the AMT Double kit, a lot of modifing, Kit Bashing, and after market parts. It was inspired by Bad News built by the Choppers Hot Rod Cub on TV. A Traditional Hotrod!

[greymack]

I'm like most of you too I have a couple models on the bench.I always seem to finish my models up but you ever notice that models are never really finished?

[samdiego]

All of 'em

[ZTony8]

To get technical-it could be said that ALL of my model kits are ongoing projects.It's just that not all of them have gone past the "open the box and look at it" stage.

[Bad Brad #2]

"How many WIP's can one have going on at any time?"

Thats like asking how high is up...
