Edward Woodward in Callan used to paint model figures; which is something that he does in real life too.

John

Ah, John, you beat me to it - I was going to mention Callan too! In fact there was an article in MM about him when the Callan film came out. One of his figures featured prominently in one of the episodes, because his rooms were searched by rival agents, & one of them stole a figure thinking he wouldn't notice! As if! As it was a Tradition Kaiserstandarte bearer it struck a particular chord, as my Dad was painting one at the time!

One of my daughters is a McFly fan - one of their recent song videos (I can't remember the song - wasn't that interested) had them as kit parts on sprues, complete with instructions, & a kit box that had Tamiya-like stars on it! I think during the video they were "assembled".

Also one of the more recent Characters can`t remember his name, but he was Peter Barlows old navy buddy had a room full of model submarines

I just saw The Good Shepherd, and the main character builds alot of ships in bottles. It even shows in the movie how they are built and sealed in the bottles.

In one of the first few Friday the 13th movies Cory Feldman has lots of model airplanes hanging from his ceiling and I think he's shown building one too. He also has alot of cool monster masks on shelves in his room.

I can't believe none of you mentioned the Simpsons. There's the episode where Bart and Homer are building a model together only Bart's half is an airplane and Homer's half is a boat.

Theres also another episode of the simpsons where Mr Burns built a model of something called the spruce moose. Except he thought it was the full sized flyable model lol

Just caught a Sopranos rerun last night, the episode that introduces Furio, Tony's cousin from Sicily. In this one, a guy who is controlled by Tony and runs a house of ill repute behind a tanning salon is late on his payments. Christopher is sent in to collect and the guy is hand painting the rear wing of a large scale F1 car. He winds up having the car smashed with his butt and the paint brush in his nose. When Furio visits later to make a more serious collection visit, you can see a number of model cars on the shelf circling the room

anyone mention "close encounters " , a guy has a reocuring dream of the alien landingsite, and makes a gigantic model of the mountains and surrounding grounds.
I think it's a Spielbergfilm, with dreyfuss the actor?
