Stalled And Failed Scale Model Car Projects Ep.15

[@ronstewart9792]

Great show guys. Thanks. Ron

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Enjoyed!!! 🙂👍😉👍

[@blueoxmodelshop3405]

Great video as always guys!!! Stalled out builds is one thing I don’t have. If I start to struggle, I just embrace the frustration, push my way through it, and then when it’s done I can hate the build as a whole 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks guys!!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

LOL!! Jason I love that point of view buddy. Thanks

[@rickzinck9326]

Good stuff guys. Stalled projects yup. Failed projects, no such thing. They just morph into something else. Luka could use a rear view mirror to keep an eye on Felix! lol

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Lol, that is a great idea!! Luka definitely needs a rear bmview mirror

[@mrclarke5200]

This will probably sound silly but I think it would be cool if Luka would get his channel logo turned into a model kit. A drag racing skull would be an awesome looking display piece

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

That would be cool. It kinda already is. It was a model that was used for inspiration when my dad drew it for me. I'll be doing a video on it one day.

[@MileHighScaleModeler]

With Andy now having his own model company, it may be easier now.

[@Jurvaa]

Thanks for mentioning by build.

[@seanh2390]

great show guys, as usual !!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thank Sean!!

[@ScaleModelCarBuilder]

I second you both on the Foose Cadillac, I never wanted it until I saw Mile Highs build!

[@MileHighScaleModeler]

Thanks for the two mentions in the video. I have a few stalled projects but haven’t had any I have thrown away. The stalled projects are stalled as I get to a point to do custom fabrication and if I screw it up, then some of the kit parts are worthless. So I need to have a second kit, however the kits I’m using are for 1:1 replica builds and the kits are not cheap, like the 1:12 Lindburg Fiat Dragster.

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

It's not because I wanted to. 😲😉

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Very welcome Brandon! I have a huge pile of rare kite that I would hate to try to build and not go well or ruin. So I feel your pain there.

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I'm using that Cadillac air clearner for my 32 Ford Vickie. I got mine from E Bay. I see them a lot. And! I'm gonna have to remember "putting the poop back in cow" sometime!

[@gamerofwar_]

Some of My stalled kits are the one with the old decals for the nascar kits good thing we have mike decals or ebay for replacement

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Agreed!! It's such a pain when the decals fail!!

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Awesome video as always guys!! Fun!! BG, FINISH THAT SOCK CAR!!

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

He is, Mark. It's so cool. After the taping. He got back on it. Brought it to the Model meeting last night with allot of progress. 😄👍

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks Mark! Say, was that a double dog dare I heard? 😉

Oh no! I would never say that! …….but if the shoe fits……. LOL!!

[@drppr76]

I think Tamiya TS23. Light Blue might work if you want to do one of Terry Labonte's Piedmont cars

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

I was thinking that too. 🤔 I know it's very popular for Petty Blue. Heck, Dale Inman was the crew chief of the 44 car.

[@drppr76]

@@TheLukaCeeChannel If you look at the Petty#43 and Terry's #44 they appear to be the same color of blue - I could be wrong

[@tonybuglione3516]

I got suckered into buying that same boat kit and I had the same experience with it being a flash blob. It sits in the stash unbuilt.

[@jackdeville7890]

Paint the body first and put it away to cure while you work on other models. This will give you time to work out problems with the model and you won't get the project "burnout"

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Good tip Jack. I tried that with my nascar kit......still haven't done anything with the body amd now the chassis is nearly done. 😁

[@jackdeville7890]

@@BGsModelWorkshop I got a lot of models that are still not finished, most of the time I will strip off the body paint and go with another paint scheme.

[@jackdeville7890]

@@BGsModelWorkshop I have a question about the posts on "BG"s Model Workshop", I am new to the group and how many posts can I make and how many pictures of my models can I post ?

Cant wait to be invited to the BG model scale model workshop. Half of my builds are something other then cars.

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

You don't have to be invited. You can just join.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Yeah, it's an open group. Just need to answer a few questions and bingo! Here is a link! facebook.com/groups/341860268035719/?ref=share

[@deenjoan9938]

Enjoyed stalled kits humm yea I might have a few of them myself seams a few stalled out on the Paint thing lol kind of like Luka I guess I am sure I will get to them but I don't smash them , dang things cost to much now to smash looking forward to the next video🍪🍪🍪🍪

[@johnnybaughman7593]

my stall is when I get ideas from you guys and then need to wait to fit getting the stuff in the budget that doesn't budge.. thanks a lot..lol

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Ah, unbudging budget items. Do we really need toilet paper and running water? Asking for a friend.

[@chucktaylor2772]

Don't have stalled builds, problem is I have so many ideas that usually half way through, I am already thinking 2 builds ahead. So once it's 90% done and I see my vision. I start another one and wind up cannibalizing the first one for parts....

[@tonybuglione3516]

The flattened windshield is common to that Fooseillacs. Not mashed all the way to the cowl, but definitely lower than intended.

[@tooltas]

same here if paint go south then it get boxed and body get a bath

[@toddbreitenstein8522]

Oh I have failed builds that didn’t go int the trash. I may want to steal parts off of them. Maybe they are a success in the way of what not to do?

[@tonybuglione3516]

An SJ Duesenberg is unsupercharged. The supercharged ones were SSJs.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thank you, i believe the J was the naturaly aspirated engine the SJ was the super charged and the SSJ was the special edition cars made for Hollywood stars.

[@tonybuglione3516]

@@BGsModelWorkshop Yeah, you're correct. Dying brain cells here.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

@@tonybuglione3516 😁 no worries Tony, I just happen to be reading about Duesenbergs right now. 😉

[@BarnacleBrando]

Great show, as usual. Love the Chevy pre-runner. We don’t have a whole lot of desert racing here in NY…..so they’re really cool for us. My biggest stalled kit is an AMT ‘70 Chevelle turned into an 80s street stock dirt track car. All I have left to do is finish the bumpers and add screen mesh into the window…but two years on it’s still in the box. Lol

[@heidihobear]

Actually I think this helped me because I have so many kits where the body is painted but nothing else. Then I lose steam to finish it. It’s funny when I was in a club I got a lot more done. Now that I’m not in a club or a group I don’t get any thing done or finished

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

No dead lines? No finished builds. I get like that also. That's why I started joining in on KZbin group builds. Really helped me get stuff built and thin out the stash.

[@deepjunkgarage]

Well ......... Stalled projects are usually the product of me building slow as molasses....and there may seem to be multiple stalled projects because I have 6 or 7 going at once......couple that with my slow building style and minimal bench time and you get what looks like allot of disappointment ..... and it's really not because I bury all my disappointment deep, deep Inside. 🤣

[@alancyr3100]

Stalled projects! Yea I got a few.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

A few, or a FEW!! 😁

[@robertjutson4640]

My only stalled project is a certain ‘88 GT build.

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

😁😉 Im looking forward to seeing how that turns out.

[@tonybuglione3516]

BG- 91% alcohol is supposed to strip Tamiya lacquer.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

[@Duececoupe]

You need to make your channel logo into decals Luka, I need it for my own gasser in 1/24 or 1/25...."Engine by Luka Cee Engineering", "Sponsored by Luka Cee's Speedshop".... Failed kits, I've just put aside a 1/35 kit because it crumbled on me, I have noooo idea why it did it, sooooo....I dug out one of the AMT '40 Ford coupes that I've got! Well, I'm off to search for that elusive building mojo, some say that it is more of a legend, myth, than the Holy Grail and Ark of the Covenant! Hopefully this '40 Ford will be the answer! 😉😆😉🤞🏻

[@Duececoupe]

Darn it, nearly forgot.... Keep gluing those fingers.... Keep cutting that styrene.... Here's the PRODUCERS!

"Its a donor" it makes me feel better after i threw this 66 fairlane in the garbage

[@daveelliott6230]

70 1/2 AMT Camaro. Chassis won't fit in the body. Body sits way up in the front Big block car Displayed with the engine out,, hood off.. Explains why it sits so high in the from Only thing that kept it from the trash or donor status

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Ah yes, the 701/2 kit. I haven't heard great things about it. I believe you are not alone!

[@G-WhizsWorkshop]

My failed kits end up becoming smashed and trashed....but it rarely happens, usually when I get a kit with tons of flash or a broken/bent piece. How do you join BG's Facebook group?
