Smile Hello from Virginia Beach

I'm new to paper modeling, I did balsa wood and plastic models years ago, seems like a inexpensive hobby now that we have computers and color printers. I am looking forward to getting a lot of hints and help from the forum since I am a NOOB

Welcome to the forum! I recommend you check out some of the build threads here. They have a wealth of detailed technical information that is sure to help you.

Print out a model and start cutting folding and gluing. The nice thing about this hobby is that if you screw up you can reprint and start over. That's easy to say at the beginning of a project, but after you have 20 or 50 hours in it it's not so happy go lucky, I can tell you.

If you get stuck or have a question, just ask and usually somebody will be able to help.

Thomas
