    Styrakosaurus

    I love the model, but I'm "in love" with the base. You and I are from the same school when it comes to the importance of bases Peter. It's what elevates this model from just being a dinosaur on a shelf, to a real work of art. Nicely done! Regards, Don

    Had to laugh

    Nah, the canopy's mounted correctly, he's just got the nose and tail on the wrong ends. :)

    Short build - HinaIchigo from RM

    Nice looking builds Nezard. I like the shadowing on the water can. I'd like to see more of that in card figure models. Was there any portion of either build that stands out to you as more challenging? HinaIchigo's hair looks like it might fit into that category. Regards, Don

    Now comes the sad news on Mizuirogakuen...

    Wow. I don't know what to say to that. What a loss!

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    No progress on her since my last post, horologium - I got 8 yards of top soil delivered which I am spreading by shovel, wheelbarrow, and rake. I can't wait to get back to her though. The only other FSS card model I know of is an AKD knight by the same designer as Fatima Ieatta. #63 in the...

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    Give her the boot! I started with Ieatta's left boot. It is made up of 14 pieces, which are laid out in the order that they are to be constructed. First the 2 piece spike heel, then the toe, then on and on 'till you get to the top. What a long leggedy gal she is! The completed boot is 135mm...

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    I agree Nezard, the hands are pretty weak. This flat hand style seems to be the standard for these less complicated anime models though. And then there's Aru....'nuff said. I have a modification planned for Ieatta's hands. I don't know what the outcome will be, but I'm hoping for a more 3D...

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    Mark, I downloaded these files a while ago but there are hands in my set - they are grey gloved hands and are located on the same page as her hat. As with Noname, they are very simple with a wide wrist that is rolled and slid up into the forearm. Yes, I'm sorry to say the alternating glue tabs...

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    I'm off to a poor start. Sliced my thumb on the first part. Not a nasty cut, but it's bleeding too much for me to continue tonight. I've got a band aid on it now. Hopefully it'll mend up enough over night that I'll be able to continue tomorrow. One of the minor hazards of the hobby. Nuts. Don

    Fatima Ieatta Build

    Greetings all, While I'm all bold and sure of myself with the successful build of Noname http://www.cardmodels.net/forum/showthread.php?t=8068 I thought it was time to take on an even more intimidating anime girl - the fatima Ieatta. The model is available for download on the Pepakura...

    WAK - Russian (1916) Armoured Car Mgebrov-Renault 1:25

    Call me lazy (you're lazy!) but I prefer no interior - I'm more likely to actually build the model that way. When the part count reaches 4 digits, I tend to run away screaming. I have an unbuilt Wz.29 that can be assembled either way - an interior is provided for the industrious, and a typical...

    help with short Polish translation

    Wow! That was fast. Thank you Michael. When I told her what it meant just now she laughed. She thought it might have been religious in nature with the shepherd and flock motif. Regardless, she still likes it for the stylized artwork on the face. I'm sure there is an interesting story about how...

    help with short Polish translation

    Greetings all. My daughter bought a heavy bronze medallion at a flea market in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania over the weekend. It has an agricultural motif on the front, (stylized shepherd and sheep) and raised lettering on the back. I'm sure it is from Poland, but the internet translators...
