Uhmmm, we do the best we can?

Just because we do not cater to your wants/needs, does not negate
our purpose here.

You can try - Zeist Bouwplaten - Import, verkoop, ontwerp en productie van papieren schaalmodellen, maquettes en bouwplaten (cardmodels), Modelbouw, Rietveld cutoutmodels. I believe Diderick has a few Japanese models for sale.

I don't want to make his address totally public though but PM me if you'd like to contact him.

Way back in 2009 I saw this and thought "I want that Tiger" ...



Well I've now got it, but I haven't quite sussed how to blow it up to life size like Kei did. The original kit comes on A4 sheets ... Going A3 was easy, but so was A5 and A6 ... So I did ...



The A6 one would normally have been way past my current abilities, but by starting with the A3 one, then repeating each construction step down the sizes made it easier, and I didn't need to resort to the magnifying glass at all.

I'm well pleased with my little collection, but now begins the experiments to achieve that life size one. I don't think printing it to A1 (I have a friendly print shop nearby) is actually gonna achieve the size, so I'm gonna have to experiment with blowing up all the separate pieces to 500% one at a time. I WILL get there, but meantime ... did I mention that I also got the Jaguar?
