    Skyfighter from "V" The Series

    Nice!! I remember in the series the ships modular looked like they could be reconfigured, maybe add longer sections, if needed. It was a well thought out design. Reminds me of "Tacit Blue", which was the prototype for the B2 Stealth bomber. ;)

    I cannot find any pictures of the actual motor. Considering it was a common flat 4 engine, you think there would be one out there. 60 hp doesn't seem like much horsepower. I imagine this was almost a "tankette', it carried machine guns, no large guns, I don't know if there were sub models...

    Great craftsmanship. I wonder where, and what that boxer 4 cylinder engine came from and what is may have been used for. Boxer engines are usually very reliable, as they can run on such a little bit of oil. The engine in the Piper I flew took 6 quarts, but was rated to fly with only two...

    "Flying Dutchman" - Ghost Ship - OREL Russian Paper Model Build

    They may want to use a picture, or a few of them, for their website, to show what can be done. This is one fine ship. Don't let it be your last ship though, there are lots of smaller sailboats, like sharpies, which can be built, won't take as much time at all, but will look beautiful. I even...

    James Bond's Aston Martin DB5

    If that body where made, then sanded, and the radii and compound curves made into plugs from 2 part epoxy, you could water form one of the fenders without any seams on the corners, and trunk lid. That would take this model way over the top. ;)

    Dewey - Silent Running drone model by uhu

    I loaded up to the forum a YouTube video of the amputees inside the actual costumes that where the robots, which is why they seemed so sentient. I can't find the video anywhere. I think YouTube took it down. It was a fascinating video. I searched YouTube for an hour but could not find it. :)

    Watch the seams. That's the part where dry fitting, even using Blue masking tape, which won't rip off any paper, but hold the pparts together, can help. Sometimes not trying to glue the whole section at one time can be good too, but do opposite sides, so the parts stays straight. ;)

    M4A4 Sherman VC Firefly, Halinski 1:25

    Excellent video, excellent job on building this model to a standard I've never seen by anyone. Damn, that is just fantastic, and this build thread is fantastic too. You took us along on your journey and I know I have garnered much knowledge from seeing your building technique. :)

    1/144th Gundam Helios by Bandai.

    I get really dizzy sometimes. I have Glaucoma really bad. I have to take those drops, or my eyeballs really ache. I have really bad Tinnitus, it's really loud. I have a tone generator. The frequency I hear is almost exactly 8000Hz. It never goes away. It just gets quieter, or some times...

    "Flying Dutchman" - Ghost Ship - OREL Russian Paper Model Build

    I thought "euphroe" was a verb, like, "Euphroe it dis way, and Iphroe it dat way". Seriously though, this is a masterpiece.
