Hey Revell-Fan, that model was awesome! Thank you very much for the tips!:) The saber is definitely going to take the most time. The ink on the aluminum "paper" is not wiping off but that stuff is pretty thin - plus the pieces pulled apart easily with Elmer's glue. Back to work...

Thanks Behzad! So I have ordered both colored transparent sheets and inkjet transparency paper. I'll try both to see which looks the best. Also got some "aluminum" inkjet paper to try as an alternative to the really thick card stock. It is very thin and has a shiny metal finish on both...

Nice job, that is a fun one to build. Did you double side the hands?

Thanks

Well, I couldn't leave well enough alone, just not happy with the way it turned out - especially since the model is left handed instead of right and the markings on the uniform are not correct - plus the size distortion due to my color modifications and the sword is pointing out and down. So...

Thank you tatertot and jean-lucpicard. It is appreciated - especially since I am not a master builder like those who have done some of the models on this site - wow! The train is in the closet with the rest of the Christmas decorations - in a box of course. There is a Back To The Future...

Have you done the the first movie version of the Enterprise? ("The Motion Picture") Really like the flickr site.

Thanks bgt01, and that is a great idea. What if I print out the PDF, then scan it in, then modify it and print it - would that keep the same size?

Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing the details of the build. You should be very proud of your - C. I must admit - I can't get past the original or the the first movie version, they will always be my favorites!;)

I remember that one. Very nice work.

Hey the site looks great! Here are the remaining pictures. A wheel - face on the side or inside? Plenty of wheels to do Wheels drying More parts And more parts... Finished engine Track is ready Now to make the presents - may want to make more for a fuller effect. Finished! Not...

Finished! Well, actually finished on Christmas Eve and I must say this was a really tough build. Being a beginner I was not entirely sure if some assemblies were missing tabs or not. I know there is a technique of not using tabs, but at this stage I prefer the tabs – especially when trying to...

So back at home and have now completed up to page 3 of the instructions. (These pictures were enhanced so they would not be so dark.) Coloring the edges. This hides any "cracking". Bottom frame assemblies completed. Nothing too hard here. Bottom frame completed On to page...

Thanks Cforrest900. I have used the same paper for all my builds except for Mjolinr - used Card Stock for that due to its size and the need for extra strength - it is a hammer after all. The glossy paper does "break" a little on the edges but a colored marker hides that pretty well.

Thanks inky, Rogerio and Rhaven. Not sure I'll finish by Christmas - its a busy month!

I managed to get the complete original Ultraman series on DVD. I had seen a few episodes as a kid so the DVD was a chance to see what happened (it was in Spanish when I saw it as a kid and I am not fluent in Spanish). Other than that I have never seen any of the other Ultraman series. I look...

Thanks Rogerio, the original Ultraman pictured above looks better than the TV version.
