I have always struggled to properly place formers inside the fuselage of aircraft models. I saw a post on another paper model forum suggesting the use of a ring tweezer used by jewelers. So, I decided to give this tool a try. I couldn't find one locally so I ordered it from Amazon.com. I can...

Saw this photo on Facebook. This model is plastic, but something like this could be done with paper models.

The P-51B Miss Pelt is one of many Mustang models offered by Dave's Card Creations. The Miss Pelt was flown in World War 2 by Tuskegee Airman Lt. Clarence "Lucky" Lester. This model has 5 pages of parts and 3 pages of assembly instructions with several construction diagrams. Features include a...

The Lockheed Have Blue was a technology demonstrator used to design the Lockheed F-117. I am a fan of stealth aircraft. So, when I saw this 1/50 scale model, I bought it immediately. As far as I know, this is the only 1/50 scale paper model of the Have Blue. This is a simple model that has 35...

In a recent aircraft "Model Build" thread (https://www.zealot.com/threads/modelart-f117-desert-storm-1-48-scale.182405/ ) , Zathros suggested cutting out windows on aircraft without interiors and adding plastic windows. Then blacking out the interior. I am thinking about trying this technique...

I am a big fan of interesting looking aircraft and spacecraft (real and fictional). The tv series Stargate had 2 very cool craft; the F-302 and the Goa'uld Death Glider. There is a very simple paper model of each in the "Resource" section, but I would love to see someone do a more detailed model...

Recently, I did a build thread on the Modelart F117 American Flag version in 1/72 scale. I wanted to add a 1/48 or 1/50 scale model of the F117 to my collection, but I couldn't find one. However, thanks to the 2-window arrangement of the parts on ModelArt 1/72 models, I was able to print out a...

Modelart 1/72 scale model files are organized so there is 2 sections per page. Enlarging the parts pages to 1/48 (or 1/50 scale) is a simple matter of adjusting a couple settings on the .pdf print screen using the current version of the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. On the print screen (as shown...

ModelArt offers 2 versions of their 1/72 scale F117: the Desert Storm version, which is mostly gray, and the American Flag version. This 1/72 scale model has 4 1/2 pages of parts, 5 diagrams, and 1 page of assembly instructions (in English). I don't think this model will require any great...

Greetings all, I started building paper models about 20 years ago, but had to set it aside due to a heavy work schedule. I started building again after I retired about a year ago. My interests are aircraft, sci-fi spacecraft and real spacecraft.
