Sailorman Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 /media/tinymce_upload/12b3e081baf61de671514bdc619272f6.jpgI find it difficult to concentrate on one model at a time when I am scratchuilding a ship. At times like these I tend to build some other kit as a "break." Lately I took a break from building a 1:600 SS Stockholm. I found an old model of the Airfix Hercules I had started some 30 odd years ago. I stripped it down and rebuilt it purely as a distraction and also to practice some other skills eg: airbrushing. Airbrushing a large aircraft is so different from airbrushing a 1:600 ship. I learnt a lot doing this and the lessons learned will serve me in good stead in the future ......... I also have a much greater appreciation of the work others do on their aircraft! The Herk isn't quite ready ...... and it might be some time before I go back to it. As you can see the model is not all that good. Clearly, being able to build a good ship model does not mean I can build a good aircraft model!Does anyone else find it difficult to switch from one type to another?/media/tinymce_upload/10104c82790ec4edae0ee8065e0be16b.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
