Building Models

[FUNKMAN]

was anyone into building models as a kid or still continue to build them. i remember getting a few from the local drugstore. a couple warplanes and a tank.
I could never seem to glue it together perfectly and was never truly happy with it when i was finished.

I always wanted to build models and stuff when I was younger. It's just that evertime I bought one, either my dad or my sis did it. And it pissed me off cuz they told me I was too young to use rubber cement. (?!?!?!) I was 10. I wasn't dumb.

Anyway, I had a Apache Helicopter model, and F-14, and a 1948 Ford Pick-up thing...(forgot the name of it). And I know how you feel. The models never seemed to look right when you were puttin' them together, especially with glue.

Did any of them ever get finished? Let's just say I've got three model boxes sittin' under my bed, and none of them are empty.

Makin' my own sigs cuz I'm still unknown on this site and too lazy to ask anyone else to make them for me.

I built those Lego Models. Id always get one of those really big ass sets for Christmas and like a kid, id get up at 2am and put it together by 4am. Then rip it apart and make some helicopter or something.

Oh to be 8 again.

i used to shoot off the model rockets that land with parachutes at overpeck park all the time. i gave it up though cause everytime they would fall and the chutes would pop, the goddamn wind would carry them into the fuckin hackensack river. i had to lose at least 6 rockets in that garbage disposal

i remember that too... and trying to put the little barrels on the turrets so they would point straight.
even if they were slightly crooked it looked crappy and mine were ALL slightly crooked...

why didn't they make it a one-piece, turet and barrel? i'd be a normal person today... i'm gonna sue

Only if you bought the kits that snapped into place rather than had to be glued.

I had lots of them.
I remember chewing the glue off of my fingertips.
It all started with a Walker Bulldog tank model when I was 7.
I had lots of planes, ships and tanks.
I had a huge model of the Tirpitz.
The hardest thing for me was putting together the little motor that many of them came with, where you had to wind up all that wire and shit.
The planes I had hanging from the ceiling and one of my brainstorms was to line up one fighter plane with another.
I'd glue fishing line above the gun barrels of, say, a P-51, and they'd go to, say, a BF-109. Along the fishing line I'd put little balls of cotton dipped in yellow model paint for tracers every 6 or 8 inches. Where they were hitting the other plane, I'd take bigger cotton balls and kind of work them around in an empty paint jar that I'd put a little black and gray paint on the sides of, and stick these on.

Burning the ships in the woods with my friends was always a good time also. We'd each bring 3 or 4 that we were tired of or had broken parts off of or something.

The only car model that was any good was the Munster's roadster.
I also had a Frankenstein and a Frankenstein's Bride model, and a Batman model was really popular one year.
