As I was reading Tank Carl 's long list , I thought about all the kits that I have started on but havent quite completed . You know that one last after market resin part or just the right shade of OD , or just a OOB build that just never gets built all the way . Last night I just sat there and looked arround my work area and wrote down what was visible that was still in progress . So after going over this list it brings up the question - is a model ever truly finished ? I know that this was a topic in General modelng a while back . So here is my "incomplete" list of kits and why its not finished .

1/72 F-16 - cant make up my mind on the paint scheme
2 - 1/25 corvettes a 68 & 69 - ruined the body on the 68 trying to open the doors lost the back 1/2 somewhere - getting the paint right on the 69
Barris T buggy - paint scheme
Italeri M-113 - no real reason
Tamiya M-106 - decals
Tamiya M41 - getting the AM figures finished up
Italeri Tiger 1late model -weathering and figures
M-551 Sherdin OPFOR VISMOD - crew and weathering
M-60-A1 bulldozer tank - paint scheme
Panther G - working on Dio
T-64 - weathering
M-1046 - going to cross up a Tamiya and a Italeri Hummer
M-1114 hummer - getting the gear inside right and the crew placed before gluing the cab on + its going on a dio
ME 262 - fianal paint , decals and canopy
3 F-18s - paint and decals
F-15 - paint scheme
F-16 tiger - just started it
F-16 cockpit - in mid build
2 - 88 mm flack / AT guns - display bases
Star Wars Vigaro ship - something that my son and I started - 3/4 of the way done .
Italri JagdPanther - needs a barrel old one was broken doring a kamakize dive off of the table
The german trike - a few parts and fianal paint
Wespe - no real reason
Steyer command car - going in a dio - paint
Shgerman Jumbo - going in a dio with the steyer
M-60A3 - re building it a bit .
And to top it all off - I won a bid on ebay - (kit to be announced in a few days) as well as another one that I'm watching . So my unfinished list is about 32 kits so far . I'm shure that I forgot something some where .

Being called to the Sandbox for a year may have slowed your modeling down a bit also
