2011 Builds

[SuperStockAndy]

This year I finished a whole....3 builds!

CTH build time: 10 months

Dart build time: 7 or 8 months

Super Bee build time: 2 years and 10 months

And they don't even look good...

PS Sorry for the terrible pics...

What you talkin bout Willis? Alright the pics could be a bit sharper, but they're better than a lot we see on the board. They're well lit with not to much clutter in the background.

The cars themselves look pretty good to me and for your age you're doing way better than some who have been building a lot longer. Don't get hung up on comparing yourself to others. If you do feel the need to compare, compare them to your own older builds to see the progress you've made. You don't need to have all the photo etch, wiring or plumbing to have a great looking build. The less uptight you are about it the better your builds will become because you'll be relaxed and having fun, and that what this hobby is all about.

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate it Jacen, I'm one of those critical people where EVERYTHING has to be right. Even though I think my building is very bad, it's the comments like those that keep me going. Thanks

Brett, no matter HOW SIMPLE I try to keep a build, SOMETHING ALWAYS goes wrong. The other day I was finishing up my Cobra Jet, I was putting the mirrors on. BOOM! The mirror shot off the sprue, only to be found again some other time...

Of course though, I expect that kind of stuff because that's my luck...
