I didn't find it on-line. It was a photo copy I found in a bunch of craft magazines I got at a garage sale. I scanned it and cleaned it up then printed it with a laser printer onto color card stock. I have it someplace on my HD.

One pager for my daughter.

I don't normally build boats but for some reason, I always likes Tugs so I gave this one a try. The smoke stack and air vents were the hardest part. I soaked the masts with super glue so they wouldn't warp out.

Great idea! I think I will do that and hang it on my celing fan. What clear coat can I use that won't smear the ink? I've tried Future in an airbrush and had to scrap the model. That's all I ever use on my plastic kits but paper absorbs everything and wrinkles.

Yea, I shoulda reenforced it. The FG models all seem to have wing issues. Especially at the tips. Can't complain for free however. I found a free Cesna 151 model on-line. I'm going to do that as my next plane.

Great Idea! Thanks!

Thanks Guys, Named him Chuck.

I would but I already gave it away to my sister-in-law. She's a big Munster's fan. I might build another sometime after I'm done with the UHU02 LEM.

I agree, I'm pretty much not a fan of anything with plastic bumpers & grills. Something about chrome metal that makes the vehicle, special.

Actually built this years ago before I had a digital camera. The build is very simplistic thou. Clean & fill the seams and paint basically. I would normally fill the shrink holes with putty but for some reason, the ones in his hands reminded me of sucker cups so I left them. It is Alien after...

I made this on Christmas Eve last December. When I woke up on Christmas morning, Santa had left the new Legend of Zelda game next to it for me. I'm making some paper Ferrari keys for the tree this year. :D

Some geometric christmas orniment from a craft magazine I think. All I found was a photocopy of the pattern. No instructions or anything. It was actually harder to build than it looks. First model using colored cardstock.

Yea, go for it. I finished in 1 night. The cool thing is the horizontal band hides the seam so you can be a little lax on the fit. Thanks!

She loves Monster High. The hinge wasn't too well thought out but it's still functional.

Gotta love Python.. My first crack at a sphere. Actually wasn't all that bad. Found the trick is to pre-form the sections. I use a marble on a foam place mat. The blue mat in the picture is a piece of it. The foam is about 1/16 inch thick and has a smooth glossy finish. I got them at Wal-Mart...

Finished with Avon nail polish. Eyes are bare metal foil covered with transparent red. I named him "Elvis".

Thanks for the tip and, yes, I have used NP before. My wife is an Avon Lady and she got me some really cool metalliac ones. I tried thinning with Acetone but it attacks the plastic and crazes. I found the best thing to use is Testors metalizer thinner. See my next post for the results.

Actually had a full size one when the movie promo was running. Wish I would have saved the box.

Another FG plane.

The Red Baron's foe.
