    Harry Potter Hogwarts Wizard Castle paper model - Resurrected!

    OO scale of 1:76 to N scale of 1:160 would be a 210.5% increase so you would print the 1:160 scale model at 210.5% to get the 1:76 scale model.

    The African Queen full hull version

    First off the African Queen model is coming along quite nicely. It has been an iconic vessel throughout the years.:) Secondly, I second Zathros in recommending the 1939 version of The Four Feathers. So much better than the 1978 or 2002 version. Also, the 1939 version of Goodbye Mr. Chips...

    Scoring parts

    I use a small crochet needle mounted in a wood handle to score and reverse score along the fold lines. It forms a shallow indentation instead of cutting. With small parts I sometimes use an old, dulled utility knife blade and align the edge of the blade along the fold line then do the fold...

    How do you "paint" the edges of your parts?

    I use Prang brand colored pencils for the most part. You can dip them quickly in some water or use your tongue to wet them then apply the color to the cut edge. You can blend the colors to try and match the adjacent color. Sometimes just using a shade of grey works too. It helps to use...
