Casey Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 And I live and work by that quote. Let's see some perfect models you've built.
Toner283 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 When you're dumb, you suffer. -Me I think that's a country song isn't it? "If your gonna be dumb, you better be tough" lol My favorite two are drag racing ones. "you lift, you lose" and "stand on it until you see God, and then shift."
rustbucket82 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Let's see some perfect models you've built. I did not know that it was a requirement to post my models here?? I see plenty of other people who do not post builds. And besides, there is no such thing as a perfect model. What is perfect in ones eyes may not be in others. Edited August 16, 2013 by rustbucket82

Casey Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I did not know that it was a requirement to post my models here?? I see plenty of other people who do not post builds. And besides, there is no such thing as a perfect model. What is perfect in ones eyes may not be in others. It isn't, and nobody said it was required. I asked to see some of your work, since I appreciate nicely built models, and if you live by the "Striving for perfection" motto, I'm sure others would enjoy seeing your work as well. I'm a fan of Bill's worked and he's shared quite a bit of what he's done, so if you two are on the same page as far as build quality is concerned, I suspect your work is something many of your fellow forum members would enjoy seeing, too.
rustbucket82 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 With my work schedule, I am sorry to say I haven't built anything in a few years. Everything I have built is either in storage or was (sadly) destroyed by an ex wife. Hopefully that will change soon and I can start sharing my work here.
