    I did not like Tapatalk version. This one lookes very good and user-friendly. It is a pity, that many photos are gone, but as Zathros said - nothing can bring them back. So concentrate on the new forum and the great and very helpful people which are the heart of this forum.

    It was a long time on my to do list. When starting builing paper models it looked to difficult to me. Today I was able to finalize it. - No problems during building thanks to the detailed description.

    Accurized TOS Battlestar Galactica Launch Rail

    Oh wow. Finally some new BSG material is coming up. I already use the existing launch rail for my plastic model of the Viper Mark I (unfortunately no detailed paper version exists) and will be happy to replace it with a more detailed launch rail. As Revell-Fan is working on it it will be a...

    Next project will be the Thunderfighter from the tv-show: Buck Rogers in the 25th century. I will not make an building thread as there is enough reference material here in this forum. Does anybody now whether there exists a paper model of the draconian marauder?

    Next parts. I had to adjust the front end of the stick to be able to wrap the paper around the stick completely. Used my knife and a file. ————— At the moment I am not sure how to build part 15. Cut? Fold? Any ideas?

    Thx. Yes it is a detailed model and it seems to be difficult, but if you do it with patience and if you read the instruction carefully, then everything comes together nicely. And if you you have a problem - place it here in this forum, and you will receive help. I remember my build of the...

    Test build finalized with errors - see picture. (fast build just to check the placement of the parts) @ Pattern - they are on the other side of the cannon - and I will send a picture when I will make the cannons again.

    First parts done and I can agree what Dagger mentioned. Although the parts are made of thin paper I plan to give some parts a thicker layer. Especially the end parts of the tubes where applicable.

    Based on the small parts I decided to make a test to be sure to avoid mistakes. Most parts are on thin paper, only few are made of thicker paper, which was also one of the reasons for a testbuild. Never worked with thin paper before. (Beside adding an additional layer to a part.) Here first...

    All 4 wings finalized. Next problem/topic is to place them in a moveable position. And then the lasers. Hmm....checking the parts I think they are going to be difficult. Will see.
