so guys, honestly, these two feet have been the most annoying parts since the start of the build... And we continue with the lower part of the cabin. I have already prepared the cables, they look more original than the paper ones.

After a short break, I finished the second leg. I decided to cut out the parts individually and glue them together. This makes the parts more accurate (see pictures) and it is also less tiring to cut. Now it's the stand's turn to be cut and glued one after the other. It gets boring after a...

the model is quite complicated, but it's great fun to see how it "grows". I'm already looking forward to letting the "chicken bird run". :toast:

the unframing of the thigh...

i will test it out on a few test strips, thanks for the tip.

It is difficult to cut 10-ply 160 paper, of course. 2-3 ply is still ok. But if you cut it individually and glue it together, it becomes too imprecise on the outer surfaces. It's not possible to sand it flat because the papers will separate again. For the right-hand part, I will separate the...

currently the heaviest parts to cut out. A little fine sanding and it fits.

the parts for the left thigh (the right one is the same). Lots of different hole sizes, which meant I had to cut them out with a scalpel, but it worked well. The large hole punch was not suitable for this. The important thing was that I had to keep sanding and filing the common punch (see the...

for a quick snack for a child...

Yes, the legs are movable, as are the thigh that follows, the "standing feet" and the upper body.

As mentioned above, I use the punch and turn it three to four times by hand, do not tap it. This way I achieved a nice round hole. The legs are now finished, now it's time for the thighs (red arrow). I'm happy so far, it wasn't that easy.

I usually use 160g DIN A4 as model paper. I also have 120g, depending on the situation. In this model, only 160g is used, except for the parts that are used for framing (for example, where the green arrows point). Normal 80g printer paper is sufficient here. Unfortunately, you can't see the...

The lower parts are now finished (green), now it's time to continue with the upper legs (red).

Hello folks, I feel like a surgeon and watchmaker at the same time. You can't get very far without a scalpel (!) and fine nail scissors, the parts have to be cut out too finely and precisely. You can see this on the longer narrow part (border) with the narrow slit in the middle. This last sheet...

Phase two. Cut out, fold and glue. I cut out a part with four leaves glued together as a test. Important: cut out and fold exactly! This is about the smallest dimensions. Cutting out the four glued-together leaves was very difficult, so cut carefully and with a lot of patience. Then finish the...

The beginning. I thought about the easiest and most beautiful way to punch the holes. After several attempts with scrap paper, the best way was to use a hole punch. The important thing is NOT TO HIT THE HOLES, but to use them precisely, press and turn them a little, which cuts out the hole...

hi guys, after a long break (except for a few small things) I have decided to start this AT-ST.
