sorry to hear about the incident. fortunately there's no four legged walking here, except me under the table searcing for little pieces I know I won't find for sure! (I belive there's a small black hole under the desk of every respectablepapermodeler).
about your model and fixatives, I've a question but I read Maj. Davenport just hit the thing. I don't want to bother this thread so if you know a specific thread or a section here in the forum where I can find out some information about fixatives etc. thanx!!! :D |
Thanks for the positive comments, the prop blades are paper made using the parts from the kit. I emboss the edges to cup them over so the back and front meet edge-to-edge as opposed to flat (if that makes any sense, if not I'll do a tutorial) then I flatten the inside leading edge.
some different views on fixatives can be found here
what is the best way to preserve paper models for years to come ? <~

Thats odd I seem to have a blackhole under my work table as well. That is one of the reasons I scan all my printed kits before I start building.
~ happy building
