 Subject:  What Drives you to Pick a Kit to Build?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 14, 2005
 From:  Michael Wawrow 
Hi I was wondering what motivates you to pick a specific piece of armour?

Why do you pick (for example) a Sherman M4A1 Intermediate 75mm versus some other Sherman?

Is it the availability of said kit? Is it kit accuracy?

Is it research book availability?

Is it the next one in your pile ot "to build" kits?

What would you say your completed kit ratio is? How many kits have you never finished?

I am curious because I have a few half built kits and I have found reasons to not finish the build and I am wondering if it is because I make the wrong choice of kit to begin with...

Cheers, Michael (not really a kit builder mor a kit starter)
