The Shelf of Shame

[Nap]

Hi Guys,

Some one mentioned this in a thread some time ago so thought I would put some very iffy pictures of what's on my shelf of shame ....

Some are 3/4 done other not so far ...didn't have a very long shelf long enough so several pics !


Amongst them ..Sgt Major Mott, an admiral , H & V barbarian , an Arab, I bird , 1 rhino , a couple of pieces primed one not ....., couple base coated ....but all on my little road to the bench !.....oh and a Verlinden

Come on guys you all must have them ..not so much WIP all started then something else came along

Let's have a bit of fun !

Nearly had an accident at that quip.

Well Kevin I have to say that I do not have a shelf of shame.Everything I start, I finish before I start another.
Maybe I'm the only one
Unless of course you count my model railway,which has took me 8 years so far,but it is a WIP.
Here's a couple of pics.
All the best.
Ralph.

Wow! That's an impressive work in progress Ralph. My father in law built a N Gauge layout. Once it was finished there wasn't a challenge anymore and he sold the whole thing.

 

[swralph]

Thanks Roger.I won't be selling this as the baseboards are fixed permanently to the wall
Ralph.

 

[billyturnip]

Glad to hear Ralph, it was a shame when the father in law's went and I think he still regrets it.

[Jimbo]

Ere!...Who you calling a F**king chicken....Cluck Cluck?

 

[swralph]

Kevin.
Thanks for the kind comments.
I get to work on it as much as I can usually as a break from figure's or other models.I've just completed about 2 month's work on it.All the buildings are done and I just need to do a lot of groundwork.I gave myself 10 years to do it and I have used up 8 of them.
it should be done within my time limit,but it does not matter if I don't.I have a lot of figure's to paint for it.
All the best
Ralph.

There isn't a camera lens that wide.

I went and bought more.

IDIOT! yes and I don't care....... they are mine......all mine do you hear.

I was just looking at this thread again and realised that
after the big Nap sell-off and Mrs Nap having dusted
so that the photos could be taken.

It was only then that you opened this thread !!!

Ha ha

Ralph, I am loving the layout, but I can't figure out
1) Where the hot dogs are going to go?
Will they be bundled and tied onto a 'flatcar'?
2) Are they the right period for the setting,
3) Will they be in the correct livery?
Sorry I don't know the jargon for twains .

This looks an interesting thread, currently on my shelf of shame are a Landsknecht and a Robin Hood figure that need finishing, and a Tim Richards vignette that has needed painting for several decades.

 

[Range Rat]

I just feel at home now, I've got bits and pieces tucked away partially started and will never will be finished. Even got an Historex figure which I tried once again...and the decade bit sounds familiar.

Hi Paul
I intended to make a train out of them but some bugger nicked them and made this.
Ralph.

 

[peedee]

I feel such a fool Ralph

Of course

A chew chew !
