Info
Heyas all,
I'm pretty new to this forum, as I decided to come back to this hobby after quite a long break (yeh, computers and video games ... grr). so ... anyway I'm in hope you can help me, I'm looking for some online store which got some "intermediate to professional" (yeh I'm daring I know, but when I was young I built hundreds of models so I believe I didn't forget everything :P ) level models, which I can buy. I'm not sure about the quality of printed models as I can't find some suitable paper for it. Usually they're either too thick or too thin, sometimes I used to finalize my models with some dope (? is this the right word?) and not sure if paper which a printer would handle would be able to take up the dope. So I rather want to go along with some "commercial kits" or how to call it, but on a quality paper with good colours and such. Any1 got any ideas? PS: I'm interested mostly in aviation - helicopters and jets, but also some motorcycles and architecture heeelp please |

Well, there's Ecardmodels.com, Orel, and .: WWW.MODEL-HOBBY.PL :. Internetowy Sklep Modelarski - Modele Kartonowe, Modele plastikowe, Akcesoria modelarskie all of whom I have used and can recommend. All accept Paypal, have very fast delivery times, and have a range of models at varying levels of pain, I mean, complexity...

Dope for flying models is not good for a straight paper model. It must have a solid foundation of balsa or bass wood. The Dope will tend to warp the paper armature but for the skinning it would work.
