Not certain that this is up to the forum standard, but was intrigued enough to have a go. Canon's Notre Dame cathedral, printed at 9 pages per sheet (A4). Actual model size is 5 x 3.5 cm (main cathedral body is 4 x 1.5 cm). Printed on generic cardstock (dont know weight/gsm). Lots of fun & eyestrain ...

WOW that's really done well at that scale. I
can see there was a lot of difficulty being that all
the parts are fiddly parts..Ron

I think we just met a real challenger!

Any chance you can do some macro shots?

I say it is definitely up to standard. And a for sure competitor.

It probably looks cr@p at this resolution, and my camerawork isn't brilliant but here you go. I dont like macro shots of micro models, because you see all the mistakes, and you wouldnt see it 'that' closely in real life.

Anyway ... you might need to open it in a new window as the preview is a fixed size ?

I see no mistakes even at that resolution. Beautiful model
and well executed. Several years ago I did the Le Instant
Durable ( not sure of the spelling) Chartes Cathedral and
at the scale of the model it was difficult. I had a lot of
eyestrain and went through many #11 blades...Ron

Wow, thanks for all the positive messages. I haven't been building in card/paper that long so it means a lot.

I'm looking at my other Parisian landmark kits and deciding which ones to scan/reduce to a similar tiny scale. Will post whatever I come up with :)
