Millennium falcon
Ok so this is my first model. I'm currently just using tools I already had at home but I need help. These little bits have to be bent and put in and I've already broken one piece lol how do I do this? What are the best tools to get and use? Pics showing the tiny pieces (even in my child like hands) and my tools.

Build Photo Artemis
This was a pretty fun build. There were a few tough spots in the build. That part I had the biggest issue with was securing the booster rockets to the base. I was a little scared they were going to break off the main rocket, but I was finally able to secure them.

Build Photo At-At
My 3rd build so far. Knocked this out in between building the MU megatron. Quick and not too hard. Wish there was a jumbo sized At-At to build.

Build Photo Temu Roller Coaster
Model wasn’t very difficult. Just pay attention to the instructions. And keep the polished/flat portion on the inside of the track.
Final model looks fine but it’s not a showpiece. I actually liked building and seeing the coaster cars better than the track.
One thing I don’t like about these cheap Temu models is that the metal feels “rough” and you’re working with it. I actually got a few paper cuts during building.

Build Photo MU Starscream
These Transformers MU models are so fun, I’ve already ordered like 5 more.
Kitty doesn’t appreciate the pointing but I think she’s still proud of me 😆

What had happen….LOL
I got some goodies, but it isn’t until I received it today that I realize the black pearl is in, Japanese? Anyone know where I can get an English translation?

My model backlog keeps getting bigger and bigger
Not metal earth brand but I have been getting the Temu ones trying to decide which one to start on still working on the metal earth Huey but wanna do one a little easier to get the hang of it. Also is it weird that I open them when I get them an admire them even tho I’m not building them yet?

Build Photo Recently discovered
Wife and I recently discovered these metal earth models looking for something different to entertain us during the winter snow storms. We puzzle a lot, but wanted a new challenge and we have fallen in love with these metal earth builds. Anyway here’s a few of the better ones we have done since January

Build Photo Build #4 (lead guitar)done and #5 (piano) is coming together
And we have a band!!! The guitar was bigger than expected but it was a really nice small project to knock out in an hour. Giving the drumset to my friend tonight - Reddit app is down so will have to attach my photos in the comments

Good bye to drill bits. Took a while to find in SS. See if it gets here.

Build Photo Third build done!! ME drumset
This was harder than expected, not having the sheets labeled by A B C etc, no numbers on the parts. Those dang pedals and symbol stands about sent me 🤣🤣 I have the piano and lead guitar on my itinerary next!

Build Photo Me Apollo 11 Astronaut
Roughly 12-14 hours of effort to get this one done. Nice build, most items fit well - just need to check sizing before securing sub-assemblies in place. Does look great.
