kapam Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 On 1/9/2022 at 8:27 PM, FatFlyHalf said: I suppose it could be put down to seeing a ‘poor lump of plastic’, feeling sorry for the poor condition it’s found itself in after somebody was probably excited to get it and build it many years ago, ( I know I’m getting sentimental over a piece of plastic that I’ve had no hand in) and thinking I could bring that model back from the brink of going in the bin and turn it into something half respectable at least. The answer to the reason - the challenge! I like your reasoning. I tend to think of kits having a sort-of "personality" whereby they welcome being in the hands of caring and skilled builders - like all those who visit Britmodeller, for example. Likewise, it is uplifting to see a so-called "glue bomb" get redemption, such as you have done on this Phantom. Well done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
