[VoL[oM]

when i was a kid i made them to destroy them it was great fun, there were no playstations whan i was a kid so how else was i to experience whacking a tiger tank or whatever

Playing with models is another great source of destruction, by the way. The landing gear of a 1/72 scale sircraft can only take that much...

very true but the undercarrige of a Ju87 could take a lot more than an Me109

I didnt destroy any of my models as I dont make any but I did destroy my friends Stuka by sitting on it.

Oh,how could I forget(this is one good,trust me,READ IT please )
okay,it was about a year ago,when I've finished Heller's black appachee gunship,the glue ruined it,smudges everywhere,so I decided to get rid of it in a creative way,I bought a firecraker called Ramadan,XXL Size I went to a park at night with my friend,attached the gunship model to the firecraker,light its fuse,and we ran to take cover...the ramadan is considered as a firecraker,but it works exactly like a firework,you light the fuse,it starts to spit sparks and stuff,and then it really freaks out,starts to spin and BANG,it goes 20 meters in the sky and then BOOM,explodes just like a real firework,some big firepower that ramadan okay,so I lighted the fuse and we ran to take cover,it did all what I just mentioned,and then LIFT OFF,we saw the firecraker with my Apachee gunship 20 meters in the sky and boom!!!!!!!!! I still remember black bits of burned plastic falling out of the sky...

Most of my models are ships and when I fail I usually just put them on fire and letting them sink in a lake.

I have posted this message before, in answer to another question.
So if you have already read it please forgive me, but it really belongs here.

Many years ago, when I was much younger, I was playing out a 1/76 WWII desert wargame on my bedroom floor. Later that night when I came home from the pub, I trod on a Valentine, completely destroying it. Better than a 1/76 scale direct hit from a 17 C.m gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yes, and I used to use an air gun as well, but very sophisticated, pitting two tanks against one another, the one with the better gun got to fire the air rifle from closer range.
As an interesting little aside, when I was doing this I couldnt help noticing that the tanks with the worst looking/painted camo schemes were the most difficult to see through the guns telescopic sights. The "better" painted ones actually stood out more.

There was a point in time about last year when I needed to ah, "purge" my ex-girlfriend's things from my living quarters, so I built a nice model funeral pyre boat, dubbed it the SS. Anal Whore (this was an anagram of her name, honestly), painted a beautiful black Totenkopf on its sail, and went to work on how it'd be destroyed.

I stocked the bottom of the boat with film canisters filled with gasoline.

I coated the entire boat in flammable modelling glue and let it dry.

Then I sprayed the entire thing, including all her letters, notes, poems, gifts, etc. with flammable arisol and let it dry into a flammable skin.

Then I strapped about 50 small fireworks to the outside of the boat, all facing up, with their fuses tied together and leading into the boat. I soaked the fuses in kerosene.

Then just before I set it sail, I doused the entire thing with lighter fluid. This boat was fucked.

I put it on the river, lit my match-on-an-8-foot-pole, and set the thing aflame as it floated into the center of the river.

The results were astounding.

Have a care my friend, I don't feel that last posting was in the spirit of the forum. Strong language and all that other hateful stuff.

1987 I made a 1/350 tamiya Bismark. I gave it to my brother a couple of years later. 2004 my brother leaves home (he's 20 years younger than me) my mother clearing out his room returns the model to me,its a bit battered parts missing etc not worth keeping. How should I destroy it.At the moment my idea is to shoot the shit out of it with 177 air rifle pellets.anyone got any better ideas???!!!,photos will be posted of it's destruction.!!!

I think it must very fun, if you have a heavy remotecontrolled tank, you can drive over with it, I saw some of those tanks, they were quite heavy, some weighted 70kg, but there very expensive! (like a 2500 euro)
