i believe it really depends on the "end user license agreement". many designers/publishers do not mind if you sell a built model or two. it is something that should be checked first and not assumed. often, the best way is to just ask the desingner/publisher. i've never refused a reasonable...

i pull out my trains at christmas and run them under the tree. they are safely tucked away by super-bowl sunday at the latest...lol!

some say BONEHEAD might be too strong a term. i think it is mild but i guess it is a matter of perspective....lol! the thing is, many of the best modelers who could make money from selling built models are accomplished enough to scratch-build, making copyright a moot point.

you are correct Art, just because a model is free does not mean others may distribute it free (or charge for it). sometimes free models are free for a limited time, and then are sold at a price later by the creator. it is difficult to make any real money from a model which was once free. most...

PTA is pleased to announce the release of our A13 cruiser tank in 1/72 scale. available in desert or continental camouflage. i tried to post the file for our .doc style directions on our site but there seemed to be a conflict. directions are now purely graphic but should allow easy assembly of...

i need one too! looks very nice...

at this time, our plans are for beefing up the selection of allied vehicles. here is our A13 which should be available next week as a FREE download (replacing the old PT 76). it will be available in desert and continental green (shown). i'll have to give some thought to a modern release in the...

the early war grey version and the DAK desert version are now available here... http://www.papertigerarmaments.com/Page5.html a few tricky steps to the builds but a good bargain at $2.50 USD.

i have finished the written instructions and am now working on the graphics. hard to tell from the photo maybe but the 88 carriage wheels were too large and the -7 front wheels too small. that has been fixed. both the same now. there will be 4 versions available; DAK, "blitz" grey, winter...

coming soon to papertigerarmaments.com here is the beta build of the DAK version. the 88mm is by shaun austin and it swivels, elevates, and can be placed on it's carriage!

there is an example of this kit (unbuilt) for sale on ebay, cheap but ending in the next couple days. http://cgi.ebay.com/Model-of-the-Yamato_W0QQitemZ250069535957QQihZ015QQcategoryZ585QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

PTA is pleased to announce the release of our LAV 25 available in desert sand or NATO woodland camouflage. 1/72 scale. http://www.papertigerarmaments.com/LAVSeries.html we've been sitting on this one for over a year, now it is ready for all interested parties to enjoy. definitely one of...

as it appears the aircraft is in a right turn, any ordnace would sling to the left. highly likely that B 17 belongs to the luftwaffe. nice photo.

it is true that some AFVs from ww2 had a habit of "lighting up" like a ronson. due to expedient manufacturing, some shermans equiped with aircraft engines (and no "wet" ammo storage) were unfortunately known as "tommy cookers". the description of such events are horrific. it is because of such...

S, the structures you have listed have been done in paper, but not at 1/33. the dragon's teeth look very nice. if you google "atlantic (or atlantik) wall" you will find the information you seek, including a schematic of one of the typical, smaller "regelbauen". i'm currently doing a tobruk and...
