Hi Gert,

Funny, I was under the impression that it would be a lot easier and popu7lar to build the bigger scale models. The plastic models I used to build were mostly 1:72 scale as it was the most common and affordable scale in my local toy store.

With cardboard models, especially the ones you print yourself, it is a lot easier to experiment with bigger scales. At the most it will cost you a few sheets of paper.

Then again, I guess building a small scale model can be a real challenge for experienced builders. What a noob I am :D

@Diederick: it looks like your shop was one I found earlier. A couple of years ago I visited a hobby/modelling "beurs" (sorry all, I can't think of the proper word in English) in Goes where I bought a Snip cardmodel. Too bad I seem to have misplaced it. The solution for those situations is to buy a new one. As soon as you get home with the newly bought model you end up opening a drawer or something and the misplaced item will be right in front of your nose
