    2OO1 ASO Station V

    As I think most of you know by now, my favorite film is 2OO1 A Space Odyssey. I started into paper modelling, (and also finding Zealot in the process,) with the goal of possessing paper models of all the main space craft from the film. My most favorite ship is the Discovery, so that model...

    Ninjatoes Original Viper Mk. 2

    A while back I lost all my data and photo collection, thanks to an unrecoverable hard disc crash. :Computer: Over the last couple of days, I have been going through my rather large collection of spare hard discs and usb drives and came across these photos. The model was built for a good friend...

    Thunder Fighter: MK-III ADVANCE (1:50 scale)

    Love the cockpit, RF! I've always liked your detailing work. I do it too, but not to the level you do!:)

    Back after a long time.

    Welcome back, Cecil. How far are you going to go with the lighting of the Station????? If you are planning on cutting out and lighting the windows in the ring, you are going to find that extremely difficult, because of the internal formers..... UHU's Station 5 is a very complex model with...

    To Voyage to the Delta Quadrant (for the third time....) :)

    Nice to see you are playing with your wires to great success! It does take a different form of patience to paper-model around a bunch of electronics. I learnt that lesson after the Hunter-Killer and the EVA Pod.. Keep it up!

    Warming up, with Optimus Prime.

    Plodding along .... I prepared the last parts to complete the rear end of the model and also the chassis mounts for the fuel tanks. My knowledge of truck parts is limited, but I made up the mounting rails for the 'box/plate thingy with a storage box thingy hanging off it thing', that hangs...

    At the moment she is still in her packing boxes awaiting me to fit a shelving unit for the display case. I'll get there at some point.... ;) :biggrin:

    Warming up, with Optimus Prime.

    So, a little bit further..... As I think I have mentioned a few times, I use a home-made light table to aid my scoring for all sharp folds. I turn the template face down on the hardened glass and trace all the fold lines onto the back, using a ballpoint pen and a ruler. The thickness of the...

    Warming up, with Optimus Prime.

    The last of the repair, and the continuation of the build.... A nice feeling....! I found some 'missing' parts of the template I thought I had lost. It turns out that I had already built them...! One of the two air filter canisters had not adapted well to domicile relocation.... I cleaned it...

    Warming up, with Optimus Prime.

    Without actually getting into a punch-up with Optimus, I'm gonna take the big fellow on! Ok, albeit his 'Vehicle Mode' version created by Julius Perdana at Paper Replika. I just love the look of this truck, the Perterbilt 379, which appeared in the first 'Transformers' movie. I actually...

    It's been a while........!

    Hi there! I bumped into @Rhaven Blaack on a social media platform recently, that motivated me to stick my head in here and say "Hi!" after a very long absence......! :) I have been completely out of the hobby the last few years, for various reasons which I won't go into detail of here.... ;)...
