where do you get HO scale 2x4? sounds interesting.....

I did find an app that let me compress photos that were too large to download, and it was free! Thank you !

Yes, I see quite a few on eBay for even more money, but who knows if they will get that much?

Papershipwright has a downloadable template with instructions. Just download it. Print it, mount to heavy card, and follow the instructions. It’s free!

Here’s a photo of the box. I should also add that Revival kits came in two versions; plastic wire wheels, and metal wire wheels. The Alfa that I’m working on is the plastic version, but I have figured out how to make metal wire wheels. It makes a huge difference!

The kits were made in Italy. Revival is the company, and they made a number of kits, race cars. Ferrari’s, Alfa Romeo, Mercedes, probably more. I bought a few about 45 years ago. Now I don’t know if there are more about, maybe eBay?! They are challenging kits to say the least. And at 1/20 scale...

Thanks zathros, you are most helpful!

Thanks so much! Both sites offer possibilities. The ship is a model from JSC, and I will stick to the 1/250 scale. It also comes with about a dozen assorted vehicles that I could also copy, but having a variety would be better! Thanks again! Robert

Can you point me in the direction of these car models? Thanks!

I shifted gears from my plastic modeling and started a paper ship model. Most enjoyable so far!

Thank you! If I remember right, the mottling effect was done with a small piece of sponge dipped in the darker color, and gently dabbing it on. I still use that method with good results.

Thank you, I am working on it!

Thank you Rhaven!

Plug wires are included, I added paint. I got these kits probably 45 years ago, when they were available and at a more reasonable price. Now they are rare! The kits are difficult, but they are worth doing well. I have started to create wire wheels for this model, more to come soon!

Here’s a little kit from when I was a teenager. But I still have this little plane 50 plus years later. It was a grocery store purchase, six kits for a buck. Still think it’s kinda cool...

Here’s my current state of progress on my Alfa Romeo P-3 . Revival kits are no longer made, somewhat rare. But I do like them however challenging they are! The motor, so far...

Thank you Rhaven!

Thank you, looking forward to all that is here!

Hello fellow modelers, I am new to the group and would like to learn from being a member, as well as maybe contributing as well. My hobby interests are varied, I enjoy HO scale trains, paper models, plastic car models usually in 1/24 scale, and 1/144 scale anything. I'm 70 , retired, and enjoy...
