Wood/Plastic Models

February 22, 2008 – 10:40 am

Well, I’m not an avid ‘model-builder’, seeing that I’ve only built three of them in my entire life. Models actually don’t take any skill, you just need patience when sticking all the pieces together. Which can really cause frustration at times. But anyhow, here are my wood/plastic models.

My first model, a wooden sailing ship. Made it quite a number of years ago, but only did the sails two years ago, because the how the sails should be tied can be kind of confusing.

Ha. A F-15c Eagle, American fighter plane thingy. All the way from USA, given by my uncle to my brother, who was not interested in doing it, so I made it. It’s very detailed for a plastic model, made by Revell.

This, according to the name on the box, is St Petersburg Church. But I think, more accurately, it’s St Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow. Picture of the real thing here.

Lastly, the models in a group photo, so you know their relative sizes. Can you spot an unwelcome guest standing on the church?
