    1/12 Apollo Command Module

    Thank you, I think the topic with the choice of paper can be closed. Once I have everything ready for the start of the build, I will continue this thread.

    Mi-2, GPM - 1:33

    rhaven-blaack micahrogers thegreek270 mijob Thanks guys Thank you, I had a break for 3 years. Over the past year, I have build enough models, and I don’t want to stop yet. Only, my wife is already interested in where I will store all these models.

    Back after a long time.

    I have 3 colors of enamel, transparent, red and dark brown. This helps to determine which wire to connect to where, without resorting to determining the cathode and anode after laying the wires in the model. when the model is almost assembled and a huge number of wires come to one place, it is...

    Mi-2, GPM - 1:33

    At the beginning of the year, I started building the mi-2 from GPM. Already assembled: fuselage and engine frame, fuselage skin, nose cone and windshield. And the little things of interior elements, though not all. Here are some photos of the assembly process:

    Back after a long time.

    To connect smd LEDs, I use awg35 (~ 0.14mm) or awg38 (0.1mm) magnet wires (enameled wire). There are even thinner wires, but they break easily. These wires are easy to buy with a small spool or you can get it from an electromagnetic relay. A big plus of these wires is that they already have...

    1/12 Apollo Command Module

    I want to understand the thickness to be as accurate as possible. I do this because when I first tried to assemble a model from Uhu, I ran into the problem of mismatching parts precisely because of the thickness of the paper. I have 190gsm paper which is 0.21mm thick and fits most models...

    1/12 Apollo Command Module

    Since I have been working with paper in the metric system all my life. It is not entirely clear to me how to correctly recalculate the thickness of the paper from lbs to gsm. I found out what paper and cardboard is needed for the model. 110 lb paper (thin cardstock) .02 inch cardboard...

    1/12 Apollo Command Module

    I understand that if, in comparison with plastic, a model of such detail and size is worth a penny. But since I do not have a color printer, it will come out very expensive for me when ordering printing from a printing house. According to my approximate calculations, the purchase of a model...

    1/12 Apollo Command Module

    I've been looking at this model for a long time. My question is, did anyone build or buy it? Since the model is not cheap, before buying I would like to read the instructions to understand how complex this model is. Maybe someone has met the construction of this model on the net? Maybe there...

    Cutting uniform square holes

    You will never find a universal punch. You can look for cheap Olfa KB4-F/5 blades or expensive Swann Morton SM61 and SM62 surgical blades.
