Hello everyone!
I'm thrilled to be a part of this incredible community although I'm new to the forum! As a hobbyist papercrafter, I mostly construct cardboard Federation starships. Since the weather where I live can be somewhat unpredictable, I prefer cardboard because it gives strength and helps with humidity .In addition to starships, I've previously created models of the Avengers Tower, space shuttles, low-poly humanoids, tanks, architecture, and more. Unfortunately, the majority of them perished—some because of time, and others because of my siblings. In addition to having happiness I construct these models to decorate my house and space. Since I am unable to buy the models sold online, I simply construct my own! If templates aren't available, I create my own models from the ground up, utilizing my creativity and vision to make them come to life. It's difficult, but incredibly fulfilling!
I would love to receive advice from the skilled individuals here as I continue to learn and develop my abilities! I am also a major fan of Star Trek, primarily the Kelvin Timeline and the more series because I am a younger fan, however i am an adult.

Looking forward!

Hello and welcome to Zealot. You have come to the right place for all things paper (as well as other mediums). Many of our members are designers, and are always willing to help out new members who are getting into designing.

I started scrath building models for the very same reason. I could not afford the models that I wanted (or they were unavailable).

If you have any questions, comments, concerns, need help or advice, please feel free to ask. We will do what all we can to help you (or at least point you in the right direction).

When you do build a model I would like to invite you to post build threads of your projects. Build threads are a great way to show off your skills and techniques, as well as to highlight problem areas that you may need help with or show how you were able to solve said problem.

Once again welcome aboard. I hope that you enjoy yourself.

greetings mate, i currently have 1 model that i have built like that which is the discovery refit, i and looks like the next one is gonna be the enterprise f/ odyssey as i just cant get any template online or make 1 myself as my pc cant support blender to edit the 3d models and im not gonna make a model with 1800+ parts that wont even look good due to it being a low poly model.....
however, ill make sure to post it here.,

First off, read thru the Rules.. Found here

Try too keep whats said in the forums as PG as possible. try to keep pictures you post to under 1000 pixels per side. If ya need help, just ask.
No commercial posts, if you buy a template, and post a build thread, then you can list where you got it.
All templates in the Zealot resource section are free to download once the conditions are met, do not repost them elsewhere.

I think your history on this hobby follows what most of what went through. Welcome to Zealot. Feel free to post pictures of anything you have built, right in this thread. We'd really like to see your work.

Thank You for posting an "Introduction", it gives us a chance to formally greet you.

Again, Welcome to ZEALOT! :)

Good day mate, glad to know that many people went to the same circumstances I went through. Just we are my doubt should I post the pictures of the models that I already have right in the comment section of this thread or something else
Thank you
