How long has that box been waiting?
quite a while! :o ::)
A Shelf Queen is an unfamiliar phrase to me! :)
Possibly a play on words ? Going through what is on the backburners, clogging up the shelf ?

I am similarly uneducated...
Its a modellers term
QuoteHang around model forums, facebook groups and any other social outlet long enough and you will find out most modellers have "THEM". Them being stalled and unfinished kits, call them what you will, Hanger Queens, Shelf Queens, Shelf Sitters, or the Shelf of Shame. Most builders have at least a few while the occasional one has dozens, some builders are ashamed of them, some even proud.
Well here are my shelf queens. Some made it here due to change of circumstance and just never got restarted, others my enthusiasm just petered out or I needed something to move further and never acquired it (or acquired it to late), whatever the reason here are my Shelf Queens.
So I wasn't too wrong ? Then?
Western force to do. Roundheads for ROF to do.
Always got WW2 in boxes and on the shelf, Confederate Hammerin Iron Fleet and a fort to finish off.
1/285-1/300th Team Yankee force to do whichever country you want to name ? Well nearly ? LoL
So I can go for a few months if needed, as long as the paint keeps flowing.

Ah, so the two fleets of Hammerin' Iron ships that I cleaned up and undercoated, and then got distracted from, would probably count... :-[ ?
I have too many to list. I get bored very easily.
Sean you need the shelf before you can have a 'Shelf Queen'.
Are not your just a pile under the war-games bench.
