As of now, three dioramas for the three campaigns I'm currently in.

Dragon's M1A1HA, Tamiya's M2A2 ODS, Tamiya's AV-8B Night Attack (1/72), Italeri's RAH-66, Dragon's SCUD, Hasegawa's F-16C, Fujimi's Naval Crew (1/72), Tamiya's Honda Fit. Damn! Too many kits, so little time. Also it's time for studies so no more kit working for a few days

I only have 3 going now:
Dragon Hummel with Aber and Fruils
Panther turret bunker for OCU
Mobilewagon for RMG

I do have a bunch I am going to start, though. It is 3 degrees here, so not much going to be going on outdoors...

Man you do have some sort of of mad disease (:-) .
Start on the model room today! have been living in my apartment for 4 years and when the last room is finished ........ its time for the first one one again!
"the honey-do projects " never come to an end! #:-)

I suffer from starting kits, getting distracted, then starting something different. Currently on my work bench I have two MPM SB2Us, one MPM FF-1 and a VP Canada F2F-1, all partly built and painted. Two helicopters - a 1/32 HH-43 with Cobra interior and a Monogram 1/48 UH-1C, were put aside for the naval aircraft. But now I need to start a Monogram HQ-scale 4-8-8-4 Bigboy locomotive for my Dad.

I have got to finish something!!!!

I have to admit i have got about 8-10 projects on the go at the moment. They range from Games Workshop figure to small scale armour. There is even a P-47 Thunderbolt in there somewhere

I try to do one at a time. Right now Tamiya 1/48 Wildcat, but I have a list of ones to start as soon as it is done. Next will be a zero for the Japanese aircraft build, then the P-47 D I got for Christmas, followed by a Hellcat, then an A4.

I think if I did more than one at a time I would never finish any. This way I am motivated to finish one to do the next.

As I work on the dining room table and have to clean up each evening, I can't have too many projects going at the same time. I just finished a very long term Tamiya M1A1 built as a Desert Storm vehicle. I have the old Tamiya Tiger I combined with the "new" winter Advancing Infantry in progress as a diorama (trying my hand at a winter camouflage for the first time) and Italeri's Leopard II as a quick build to experiment on various weathering techniques both for my local armor club's February group build with a "cat" theme. I hope I will make more rapid progress on them than I did on the Abrams.

My average ongoing is something like 8 to 10 kits...

At the moment Im working on my "Clubmobile" dio and still waiting on 6 more figures. Why is it so tough to get Verlinden? over 6 weeks now. So Ive started a second kit. Normally Ill work one maybe two at a time.

I have three going. An aircraft (a6 intruder) a little something for the 2004 T2K, and the Gun Truck Cold Sweat.

What would you call buying another model after you have about 200 more but you have to have it even if never will you get around to building it!! #:-)

POSITIVE THINKING!!!

OK, I just counted ten going on right now, not including figures used to pass the time while the paint dries on something else or near the end of the night when it is too late to get involved in something too serious to finish that evening. What scares me the most is that at this time last year I was a one at a time builder. I got introduced to both my local IPMS and AMPS groups and wham, now I am junkie. During this time I went from having three kits in my to build pile to 35-40. I hope for my wallet's sake this isn't a sign of things to come!

Scared to stop building tonight (gotta finish something!!! anything!!!),

I usually run 2-3 projects at a time when they re solid models so that i wont get bored in one or get tired . But if it is like now (when building dios) never more than 2. And now i have my Nam dio for Cover Up Campaign with M113 and the other one also for Vuetnam with the UH-1C Huey for Death From Above Campaign.

I've got about 4 on the go at the mo, m113 t-34 (which i started in the summer!) sdfkz 223
and a helo oh and a figure damm so many kits I've also got quite a few semi built in boxes
but havent we all :-)

Being a novice in modelism, besides finishing my first Diorama( I'll put some pictures soon, very soon), I'm already working on a SA 330 PUMA (from Heller), but on my workbench there are already a Mil Mi-24 (for me the worlds best helicopter)-from Italeri and a kit featuring WW II "Barbarossa Operation" in Russia-a beautiful Kit from ICM... I'm thinking in building a Diorama with it...

See yaaa

There's always one who is odd. That's me.
I've been working on one project only, on and off, for over ten years. It's what I call a "tri-orama". It's three scenes from the movie "Kelly's Heroes" on a turntable.
My target is to get it done by May when our local IPMS chapter hosts a regional meet. But, just my list of remaining major and minor steps to the finish line takes a whole wall of my model room.
One tree alone (1/35th scale) is over 12" high made of a wooden dowel backbone and a gazillion twisted copper wires with additional ones being soldered as we speak. Then an elastomeric coating for the wires that can be bumped. Then the bark that I'm making from epoxy putty. Then the painting. Then the leaves (silver birch catkin seeds that I had sent to me from Prague). Then painting the "leaves". Then touching up the bark... And that's just the tree!
I'm nuts!
