You have to search for Boeing or Flying Fortress at Fiddlers for it to show. It's 19.95 and is a type G as previously stated. As for the differences. If I recall correctly the B-17F was the first to use a full plexiglass non-ribbed nose cone (in later models) and off-set cheek guns, larger...

They look pretty cool, thanks for the link. :D

Surely it would have been more enjoyable if everybody had placed hops under their armpits and smelled like beer?

Really? I'm surprised, usually people experience our special type of rain, as described by a Canadian who used to visit. "I've been rained on all over the world, but I've never experienced rain like here, rain that jumps back up at you after hitting the ground." But, I do agree we do have...

Ah, yes, well that's probably got a lot to do with the problem that a lot of people in that general area are not overly familiar with a map. Also, nobody wants to admit they live in the armpit, it just doesn't really sound very cool. If one was to take a stylized dog as being the approximate...

Good advice Zathros, it is surprising the kind of stuff that is tossed out from businesses and what they have lurking in the "never used it" file. I can't speak for the rest of the UK, but my little rock suffers from an almost complete lack of anything like this. The one printing store we...

I have no idea how many UK members are on this forum, but for those who are here and - like me - have had some difficulty finding thick heavy duty (1mm - 1.5mm) card, the following may be useful. Postage rates aren't too painful, they will send samples if you want to check out something first...

Oh that's rather nice indeed. Well done.

Can't say I paid too much attention to Next Gen. It's premise struck me as somewhat ridiculous. "To boldly go where we've been several times before".. with the galaxy's most powerful starship nothing more than a glorified taxi cab. The one thing that irritated the crap out of me with NextGen...

Anything you could never want to know about "warp" drive. Warp Engines Essentially the nacelles don't "drive" the ship, so there is no requirement for super strength supports to push several thousand tonnes of starship through the aether. All that is required under starfleet regulations is...

I agree with Zathros, don't be intimidated. Everybody starts somewhere. Pick something you like, something you would want to have as a model and go for it. My very first model was also a rather difficult one. I picked one of the shuttles from AXM Paper Space and it was an enormous challenge...

Thank you very much, just... TA MUCHLY! For whatever reason 4shared only throws 403 access denied errors at me and I've not been able to get a thing from there for months. The new link works beautifully, I really appreciate the effort made here.

Little faith? Oh, hardly. I have boundless faith... otherwise I would not be wielding a very sharp knife and almost as sharp pair of scissors in the belief that I can make this card/paper do what I want. :D It's not a problem with signup for me, it's simply a 403 access denied issue that I...

Would love to get hold of the Miranda but for some reason 4shared has been coming up as 403 access denied for the last couple of months. Ah well. The other models look rather nice also, so perhaps one of those instead. ;) Many thanks to the creator for offering them free.

Yes, great site... excellent in fact. I am aware that large chunks of the US are still suffering from lack of broadband. Several "friends" in the US are still on dial up with modems. At least I do have ADSL albeit it's dog slow and more like ISDN. Still it's better than some people have to...

Likewise I haven't been able to find a decent supplier for quite some time. Almost all my local stores now stock either the sticks or non-solvent odour free 'elf 'n' safety friendly stuff that is about as useless as squirrel turds for sticking anything. As a result I've switched to No More...

Wonderful site and a great many fantastic models. The hard choice for me is which to build first. :) Unfortunately where I suffer from a moderately slow link (rural area ignored by telecom monopoly) the Paper-Replika site can be somewhat slow for me as it appears to load an advert strip for...

This is so cool it's all too easy to forget it's being made from card. What a sterling job is being done here. I find myself quite envious.

There's a free Douglas DC3 at Bob's Card Models on page two of his aviation section. It's 1/72nd scale so you'll need to resize for your scale. Hope that helps

Thank you very much, and I have instructions. Does that make me special? :)
