For those of you who don't hang around the FG Forums, my latest - the grumman F9F Cougar in 1:264

...with my other mini models

both are FG models, the Jenny being in 1:152, & the Zero in 1:223

It was printed on matte photo paper which is just a tad thicker the 110 card stock, & the base is a scrap of 1/16" balsa with a pin stuck through it

Neato! Those make the Jennie look HUGE!

Great job.

That's almost half the size of my normal builds! Nicely done for that scale.

Too cool. I wish I knew how to change the scale of these models. My printer can do poster board thickness paper and because of school/cubscouts/boyscouts projects I always have odd pieces of card stock, poster board and other odds and end laying around. It would be nice to re-size the models to fit the pieces. I would love to try to do some of these really small scales! You did a great job.

It is easy to change size in different way. Easiest is to print on standard normal size paper or card but go to preferences where it have different paper size. Then you can say ok I print on post card 3" x 5" or what ever. That way it make the model sized to fit 3 x 5 even though paper is large. Of course, if you make paper that size to start, that is how you make it fit also. At least that is how I make things small.

I had made the opposite. I have file for a model that prints very small but I make it fit the page and it is four times larger now.

Thanks Lala, I am going to give that a try.
