Thanks Papermate. I wish you will enjoy building it as much as I enjoyed to design it.

Hi Cami, I enjoy very much just looking at it not even building it. I'll take it to the photoprint shop to print it out on 4R and see how it goes. BTW, I have chosen the 1201A for a start. Noticing your warnings on the template, I wonder if you would allow anyone to enlarge it to 1/24?

What ever you do with it for your personnal use is no problem. Here is a trick if you want to enlarge it:

Verify if the resolution is 216 pixels, it should. Then if you have a software like photoshop you could enlarge it up to 300% by copying it from the original document and pasting it on a 72 pixels resolution document. This should not affect the print quality. This means that you could build it at 1/14 scale if you wish without affecting the print quality. keep in mind that it was design as a 1/43 scale model though and I can not guarantee it will look as good at a larger scale.

I hope you will post some pics of your build. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Nice-looking models, Cami! Looking forward to more from you!

There will be more!

Looks great Cami. Are you releasing a hardtop model? My favorite 1950s style local restaurant is called FENDERS and their logo is a 57 Chevy fender with flames painted on it. I'd love to build one and give it to them as a decoration.

I use this method of changing scale myself. Its useful to change the scale and still print on letter paper. For example, you create a couple blank 72dpi documents, and start copying/pasting parts from the original onto the new pages. Then print and build your new model. No printshop required. You just have to ensure the largest parts will fit on a single page or you will need to split the part and put it back together at the build.

Yes the BelAir and 210 Sport Coupe are on the way and should be available within the next few weeks.
