New stuff, I think......

[rickstef]

Hey all,

First off, welcome to all of the new members who have joined, and started new conversations.

I guess I need to go and get more couches or something, for all the people to sit..........

Alternate Dimensions, is our new Science Fiction, Anime, and Cartoon reality model section, I have moved all of those threads over to the new section which were in the Real Space section.

As always, any questions, additions you might have, just leave a message at the beep

How do you feel about changing the "Spaceships and other space related models" section to just "Real Space"?

[rickstef]

Fair to clearing skies :D

The PASA, Paper Aeronautical and Space Administration has been created.

Rick

[BARX2]

OK then ... thanks!

Haha! Great play on words! PASA.:D

[Stev0]

LoL at PASA ... love it.

[Don Boose]

¿qué pasa?

[Gharbad]

What about the figurines and anime subforum? Seems like a bit of overlap.

[Ashrunner]

¿qué pasa?

¿qué whacha call my pasa?

[rickstef]

Kuba,

I will work on fixing that when i get home

[compassrose]

This is Compassrose. I'm a new member. I built two paper model ships 10
years ago. These were my first and second successful attempts. Three
other before that ended in failure but I kept trying.

I'm in the process now of converting my favorite paper model ship, the arctic supply ship NELLA DAN from 1/250 scale to 1/350 scale and rendering it in plastic sheet.

I like the wide and unusual variety of ships available in paper.

I forgot to mention, my two successful attempts above destroyed when I relocated to my present address.

[cgutzmer]

Welcome to the fold! Thats the beauty of paper - print and build it again! :)

[Don Boose]

Do your ship models include a Flower-class corvette?

Love the acronym (after 28 years of service you get pretty creative).

However, PASA is a bit obscure if it's the only header for the category - recommend either spell it out (Paper Aeronautics and Space Administration) or add the more traditional "real space" after it.

BTW - is it real space or sci fi/fantasy if it's set for launch in 2015; or if they haven't bent metal yet?

Yogi - OK, never mind/you done did it already. Either you are supremely fast or I missed the change when I logged on.

[Gharbad]

Personally I think anything meant to be built at some point counts as real.

[Zathros]

Mi PASA es tu Pasa. Couldn't resist that one.

[rickstef]

I have separated the Armor and civilian vehicle threads

and created The Armory and Civilian Wheels

Check it out

Rick

[cgutzmer]

Hmmm - to me "The Armory" implies you would find weapons there like guns, grenades and whatnot. I am not sure what you would call the location to store your AFV's :)

[shrike]

"Laager" would be traditional

[elliott]

Motor pool is another, weaker possibility. Shrike is right about laager. I wonder though how many people will know what it means when they first encounter it in the Downloads area?

[redhorse]

How about just Military Vehicles?

[elliott]

Doh! When all else fails turn to the obvious. As long as it includes more than armor exclusively (ambulance, HMMVW, low-boys, water buffaloes, etc) it works for me. :)

[Bradley]

This is the first time Ive had a chance to post a reply,but I think I'm going to like this group.

[dansls1]

I had suggested 'Heavy Metal' - but I think armory works. We were going for a little more spice than 'Military Vehicles', although that might be the clearest ;)
