How many Builds on the go at one time?

[Easyrider5258]

Just wondering how builds you have going at once? have a lull in my 2 current builds waiting for paints in post and fresh paint to cure, have other kits in stash I could make a start on or maybe 2 on the go is enough?

Totally depends on what you want to do,I like to have a couple on the go at the same time, mainly to keep my interest fresh if I get bogged down on one of them.
Currently though,I have a King Tiger to finish on a base,a WW1 Albatross,a WW2 Russian 16,a Revell Jaguar AND a He 111 all on the go!!:flushed::tears-of-joy:
BUT... who cares?!!... They'll all get done in time... I don't intend dying just yet!!:tongue-out2:

I've found doing two at once a game changer ,not having to wait for any of the usual delaying tactics a kit can throw at you i just switch sides to the other build and visa versa ,I do though try and keep them roughly the same shade current build being dunkel gelb? That sandy german stuff and a Italian sandy colour that way once airbrushed up I only need the same finishing/ weathering stuff on the bench for both builds but as Andy says as long as they get finished does it alter.

Unlike David I can only cope with one, thought as I normally only do dioramas it may have several differing sections that make the whole.

Indeed John....
A diorama,imho,is basically lots of separate builds put together, therefore, several "kits",(be it manufactured or scratch built),on the go at once :thumb2:

Umm... Eight
Two 1/8 figures, with a third by tonight, three 1/72 biplanes, 28mm one tank and two trucks...
I have too much stuff...

I have just the one because I know I'd mess up if I was doing two at the same time.
I do have a couple of kits waiting to be started but I won't touch them until my current one is done. I really admire people who have many kits on the go at once, but it's not something I could do.

Ive always got a few on the go,to many sometimes thats how i end up with many shelf queens lol

[Ed Sunder]

If you count the "shelf of doom", the answer is probably 12. If not, probably 2-3.

Very rare to have two kits on the go at once. Quite common to have a kit going and some figures on the side though.

[Waspie]

Just one for me. Partly because I'm new to the hobby but mainly because I always seem to have other things to do. Even being retired I find managing to find time to spend time on my model fairly difficult.

Think I've lost count - normally two or three, but with all that's happening, the Shelf of Doom seems to be absorbing the major part of my effort :anguished:

Had a word with my solicitor, his advice ' no comment ' just incase i incriminate myself.

Needless to say a 'few'. But mind elsewhere and the mojo last seen in Zanzibar!!

I tend to have a couple on the go. Ideally one build and one in paint.

I try not to start too many at once though as I'll get immersed in the new one and forget about the old one (I have several unfinished projects as proof of that)

[minitnkr]

Normally have many (5 to 15) in progress between model railroad & military.
