Hi everybody. I'm new here but I hope I'll like here.

I whant to show you one of me model wich was builded from Ukrainian magazine "Bumaznoe modelirovanie". This model I builded for about 3 month. This model is quite hard because he has quite a lot of mistakes.
P.S. sorry for my bad english

Very nice model! Is this magazine entirely paper models? I've never heard of it.
Don't worry about your English - the pictures say a lot!

That is an amazing build Shelby! You would never know the designer made mistakes by looking at your build. Glad to have you here nd I look forward to seeing more of your models :D

Hi Shelby,
Long time since this thread stopped I know - but - I have just received a copy and have a question already:

The first block is the main chassis, made from black coloured 160gm card.
But the next blocks are the formers for the front and rear of the body, parts 'J1 -J13' made from 80gm paper. I'm confused by this because I'd have thought formers should certainly be at least as strong as the paper used to cover them.
This is a papermodelling.net Ukrainian model and I know models made in this area often require the formers glued to card not supplied with the model.
There is no comment about *glue to 0.5mm card*, (for instance).
The 'J' parts have got horizontal and vertical channels marked on them - I wonder is the width of this channel the thickness the completed 'J' parts should be??
Can anyone help?

Regards,
Alan

OK - Not much help then - no harm asking again.

I have now built the chassis and am on to struggling with the dash. The 3D pics showing the assembled unit really aren't great at all, just enough detail to know where each instrument should be, but how it's assembled is a painstaking process of guesswork and careful deduction.

Noticed several mistakes in the instructions, will try to list them in my separate build log.

Anybody else built this recently?!

I knew there was a reason I picked it up for a song!
