I didn't read the whole thread, only the first post...

I know how ya feel. But I don't throw a model kit against the wall, I carefully throw it straight into the ground as hard as I can. And then I stomp on it. Been a few years, but been there done that.

It depends on whether I'm drinking whiskey or beer. Or if the wife has left me or not. If the house or car payment will be late.

Bottom line. Let it go. Life here is short. It's a piece of plastic. Your life is eternal.

It's not the hobby. It's you. You love it, or don't. Quit if you don't like it.

Buy a motorcycle and live.

Be well. Model on, or don't.

Ya'll seriously smash stuff ?
I've never even thrown a model away, let alone smashed it up. I've seen a fair number of posts on forums that boiled down to, "I screwed up this model so I binned it" and it always leaves me thinking, "Why? Put it back in its box, put the box on its shelf, come back to it later."
