Gil -- You continue to surprise with your advances in paper modeling. This is one more extremely valuable technique. I look forward to the appearance of M. Santos-Dumont. Don

Wow............ can you imagine going to a hobby store and buying a boxed set of modeled (cast) paper parts to build your model.............. naw....... that wouldn't work........ would it?..........

Can you say........."resin kit".

Gill you may have stumbled on a gold mine here.......... but I imagine it wasn't too much of a stumble for you

Thoughts on Media

Yes, it's part of a long term project. I've toyed with the idea of an alternative to injected plastic molded styrene models and whether or not a market exists. I've settled on the idea that the best way to showcase the technology is to use it only on models which can benefit from the natural translucence of paper.

One last experiment remains to complete the study....,
