    The Zoot Rocket coloring model

    Hey Rhaven, I got the Doming block and punch set at Harbor Freight. It was pretty decent priced. It is very very helpful. I didn't expect that to turn out very well, but fortunately it turned out okay. I'm going to build his next one with one extra modification from what i do to this one; being...

It actually worked pretty successfully at doming that front section, but ya gotta really keep ironing and driving those wrinkles out from the back side. In the end...

    Thank you both so much. I appreciate it very much. I will check out that warhammer site. I looked at water color paper today and that stuff is THICK, so I will upscale the model size to allow for good looking folding of even the small parts. It should look pretty cool. I may do mixed media...

    Hey thank you so much Ron. I will be doing my own version of the Enterprise too. When i do mine, I plan to print it onto watercolor paper, give it a seal to protect the ink from the water color painting, and then paint every part with correct coloring and I can certainly do some construction and...

    Thank you all for your responses and help. I appreciate it. I had the pepakura opener on the PC that just hit the runway with no landing gear recently, and I used it a few times but didnt know that about the option of how to make it just a linework model with no textures. Thank you for that...
