Zio Rolls
Well friends, it's been 8 years but the modeling bug has bit me once again and I dare say, "It's about darn time!"
I wanted to start out small at first to get back in the swing of things. You may have to pardon some blurry pics. I cannot seem to hold this camera without shaking a little. Being a lover of models I say a blurry pic is better than no pic. I hope you all enjoy this quick little build as much as I am. I introduce to you the Rolls Royce "mini" by Fabrizio Prudenziati. May his memory, talent and generosity live on as I pay tribute to his legacy. I plan to continue with more builds of his design following this one. |

Scored part using the back side of a seam ripper and a straight edge.
I've found this works best for me. When I press lightly it produces a slight crease in the card for easier bending. Pressing a little harder with the seam ripper or using multiple strokes, you can cut half way through the card. This does come in handy sometimes. |

Cut out part using surgical scalpel blade and a straight edge.
This is the rear compartment and roof. |

Part folded. I don't like white edges. Time to grab the marker.

A neat little model. I built one of these! Zio has a nice line of Model T trucks in the same scale, too.

Colored edges and glued together with 1 drop of Aleene's Tacky Glue and a toothpick.

Hi Don. I love his models. The design and coloring of his models is superior to most freely available models.
I just downloaded the whole collection through the wayback machine. |

Great! I look forward to seeing more. You are inspiring me to build more of Zio's HO scale vehicles.

Sorry for the blurry, dark pic. I will have to set up my tripod and more lighting I suppose.

I am looking forward to more roadsters, then trains and ships.
