Are these "hard" to build? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #42968 6 posts Started by saleeka

I need a new hobby and model cars seem like a natural evolution... This S2000 is what i'm thinking about to test and see if I will like/be good at it. So in real terms, considering I am pretty perfectionist when it comes to taking the time to do somthing "right", am I going to want to shoot myself for taking on a project like this? I'd also like to throw in the fact that I don't think i'm interested in this whole situation if i don't have instructions in english... So who here builds model cars on a semi-regular basis and can tell me what to expect?

Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driverCar #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03
there fun i usta build them allll the time when i was a little younger. cars, airplanes, jets ect had them all hanging on strings in my room when was younger. wow....
now the celica is my hobby lol so i dont really have time for much else. the most important thing with building a model is patience. dont ever rush things. always wait for the glue to dry ect ect.
