Modeling
Nope, not the sexy runway kind of modeling!
 More like the ... put all the itty bitty bits together in the hopes of making something recognizable to others when you're done... type modeling! I bought a few different types of models for a friend's birthday and one of the items arrived too late for me to mail it off. It was this thing...  ... but that's the (nicely) completed version of the model! This is how it comes to you ... with I don't know how many .... hundreds of loose matchsticks!  I've made quite a few models growing up... the plastic kind... cars... boats... airplanes... but never with matchsticks. Ugh!  Anyone else do any modeling?? Or ... am I solo in my Geekness. .gif "Say What?")

Omg, love this thread. For me modeling would stretch to miniature town builds and dollhouses too. A slight obsession of mine. Thanks for posting this.

Would love working on this kind too. Even though the detail is a little frightening.

Most definitely! And those lil miniature game pieces that people like to paint! Like from Dungeons and Dragons?! Those are so cool!
I've always wanted to make one of those sailing ships too! Yeah, the level of detail and precision is a little scary. And maybe a lil enticing! One day! Quote:

It is!
 I'm getting closer to being done with mine ... that is.. done with just the gluing on of matches to the templates. Then comes the sanding of all pieces... the gluing together of all ... hoping it resembles the above... and then maybe a coat of something clear to purserve it. |
