Rusty White Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 Gonna try something a bit different for October. The Sow's Ear (as in a silk purse from) subject will be for the model of the WORST kit you have ever built. I want photos guys, but if you tossed it in the trash and never finished it, write-ins will be welcome too I guess. It doesn't matter how good or bad it looks, just take a photo and show us. Feel free to share all the gruesome details. Remember to wait until the 1st to begin posting for this theme.
Mark Deliduka Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 As in worst as it is now? I have a couple of those.... Does this refer to how it was built/painted/decaled, or how bad the model's molding and such was? Time to take more pics....
Rusty White Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Posted September 23, 2013 You got the right idea, but I am interested in those AWFUL quality models we all have dealt with. One comes to mind as the Linberg Hood kit. NOTHING fits, the molding is awful and I wouldn't wish building that kit on my worst enemy. I hope this clarifies your question.
Guest PetrolGator Posted September 23, 2013 Report Posted September 23, 2013 WAAAAAAIT, garbage builds (I have many) or garbage kits? (Some) Oh, Midship Models, you are gonna get quartered.

I have a ton of ACE kits that fit this bill. Then there's the ultimate example of a badly molded kit: Armaggeddon's Panzerzug BP-44 armored train. As well as any Maquette kit.... Cool. When do we start posting these? October? Okay, I'll start compiling them now.

Guest PetrolGator Posted September 25, 2013 Report Posted September 25, 2013 Oh, I'm holding off until then.
RobMorales Posted September 25, 2013 Report Posted September 25, 2013 Cool, this is falling in line with our club project "Silk Purse from Sow's Ear". And my pick is giving me fits now...LOL
