Great site! I like the tiger moth.

1:8 scale (common to Scale Horse Drawn Vehicle modelers) would be awesome and the tiny parts would be easy to work with, even the rounds. I'd really be interested in this model as a stand alone static display.

Hey Zathros, As a newbie to this and some "other sites" that I see you at, I've come to look for your builds. You're a proxy teacher to me! I hope I never get to the point of expecting constant posting from you and then chastizing you because of my own selfishness...I imagine that would feel...

Fold, crease and score lines will usually give you an indication of where to cut. If the black line (part outline) is beyond the score line in the glue tab, then more than likely you are to build the model without lines. If the black line IS the outline AND fold (score/crease) line, then your...

That's a tough poll because all of the answers could be right! Go with what the designer intended. Do dry fits to determine final trim...pinking shears actually do make great glue tabs (and shark's teeth)!lol

I've been around REAL (1:1 scale) aircraft since I was 18 years old (1973...do the math!) Plastic models aren't built like real airplanes. Paper replicates the real aircraft build process to a greater degree. Maybe not as much as large scale RC aircraft, but when you take a look at the COSTS...

I find it difficult to throw paper away now! I'm probably creating some sort of FIRE HAZARD here in my apartment with all of the paper I hoard (please don't tell on me)! I have found uses for everything...cigarette rolling paper thickness up to 3 ply corrugated! Coffee filters too have some...

Thanks Inky!

I see some familiar usernames here from some of the other forums I've recently joined! I guess birds of a feather really do flock together! I'm into multi-media modeling with card modeling as the base media. I try to learn something from everyone and everything. I'm still in the process of...
