Hey guys, Sailing ships is my preference for modelling too. I'd love to see some more pics of whatever sailing ships you may have completed in the past or presently have in the works.:roll:
Always build the model for yourself. Your model is wonderful and don't let anyone tell you otherwise (not that anyone did).1: I don't think my model is good enough. For some reason, I feel like I am building the model for others, and not myself.
You are right here. Someone else will probably use your pic as a reference, I will as soon as I get this model that is for sure. This is not a bad thing! Doesn't matter if you messed something up or not, it is always a good thing to have many reference photos to look at and seeing how someone else did the build can be a big help to others.2: I am afraid that others building the same model will use mine as a reference. I advise against this because mine are many times not correct. I leave off pieces and put pieces in the wrong places.
I am lazy too! much more fun to build than to sit here posting pics and typing out a thread. I have found that by posting my models I have become a better modeler though. The help, suggestions, tips, and mostly the encouragement you get from this group of guys and gals is priceless.3:I am lazy and would rather sit at my table and cut paper than take photos. You all are the ones who make this community awesome.
