One piece of scale modeling advice that I got as a kid and still try to live by goes something like:

"Think of each sub-assembly as a model in itself."

I want to attribute this one to R/C scale modeling great Dave Platt, but I'm not really sure where I saw it. I find this principle helps me to derive satisfaction all through the build and to exercise patience with the project as a whole.

It can be applied to something as simple as, "I'm going to take these 2 pieces off the sprue and turn them into a 1/72 scale copy of a set of muddy wheels off a Roland C.II."

Happy modeling,
