    getting models from 3D games

    It is very funny that you mention this. I am currently in contact with some people that design coasters for the coaster simulator "No Limits" about getting ahold of some 3d models to be converted to paper. No Limits is much more realistic than RCT and the models will be alot more detailed. Will...

    converting flight sim air craft to card models

    Instead of trying to strip the model from a flight sim file has anyone thought of maybe contacting the designer? I have been into FS for a long time, still fly with a virtual club on a regular basis and lots of the FS designers are great guys. Not to mention that just taking the model is wrong...

    The Wicked Wench!

    Thanks for the kind words guys! Well, I never expected my build to "inspire" anyone.:grin: Do give a ship with sails a try sometime, It is a whole new adventure in modeling! This was my first experiance with rigging, and it was a blast. Really love the old tall ships with lots of sails and...

    The Wicked Wench!

    jleslie48, lookin good. I only had that problem at the aft end on the starboard side as can be seen in the pics. The Port side came out a little too big for me, what can ya do :roll: . I found the top to be very forgiving when adding the deck so you may not have a problem, just print a section...

    MM 1-2/2004 Cutty Sark

    Brad, A couple of thoughts for you. Always build the model for yourself. Your model is wonderful and don't let anyone tell you otherwise (not that anyone did). You are right here. Someone else will probably use your pic as a reference, I will as soon as I get this model that is for sure. This...

    MM 1-2/2004 Cutty Sark

    Thanks Jim, After looking at the start of this thread I realized that this is in fact the MM Cutty Sark. Guess thats why I couldn't find it :cry: . I will place my order promptly now! Still can not locate the Victory but Will keep an eye out for it.

    MM 1-2/2004 Cutty Sark

    Awesome build! I am really glad you decided to post more shots of this model, it really is worth it. Not to hijack your thread but I can't seem to find this model or the victory that you speak of available anywhere. Can anyone point me towards someplace that I could get a copy of both please...

    Prague Castle from Betexa

    With that many pages I was sure it would have more parts than that. Guess the GPM USS Missouri is still on top with 7,000+ parts!

    The Wicked Wench!

    Just a note to let you know I have not given up. Been working on a 1:1 scale model of a sheet rock ceiling in the master bedroom and have not had a chance to work on the ship at all. Note: this model is much more fun than putting in a new ceiling! :-D Hope to have an update soon.

    The Wicked Wench!

    Wow, what do you say when the designer of the model comes along and says "this is an awesome thread"? Kinda makes you feel good. Thanks for the kind words guys! jleslie48, I intend on building as designed (although the idea of fixing the mast has crossed my mind). The top piece is just...

    Gpm Uss Missouri

    Wow sorry for the long delay guys. Hit a rough spot there for awhile and didn't get any work done on this model. In the process I lost some (many) parts and also lost my scans so it will be awhile until i can afford replacements. This project is on hold until I get a replacement book. Sorry guys.
