Welcome to the forum, yes you see some builds here for the first time and you just can't believe your eyes and your overwhelmed a little. Best thing is to download a few of the free models and look at the tips ask for help even and post photos. and most definately have fun and i sure do building models and getting advice from others here on so many different things to do with this hobby.

Thank you ladies and gentlemen for this warm welcome. I am just begining to see the top of the iceberg of your artistry. I would like to tip my hat especially to one of your numerous members, a very talented lady: Doris. The hand skill of this artist is simply amazing

(I just can't believe what she is doing with her hands

)

I have never made paper model but from what I see, it gives me a lot of ideas for futur model projects. I am fan of naval ships from the 18th century, fan of airplanes (especially x-planes, skunk projects, VSTOL, WWII...), fan of Starwars, fan of Steampunk vehicles, fan of... well... fan of a lot of things after all...

I am currently building the well known Nautilus submarine designed by Harper Goff from the movie 20K leagues under the sea. Because it is made with embossed alluminium sheets and not with paper, it is of no interest here. But I guess I will find great modeling tips here and will study every threads one by one to try to increase my modeling skills.

Once again, thank you all for your welcome. Good modeling.

Best regards

Welcome to the forum! And while building papermodels, there are almost no limits..
It´s almost like.. ¨If you can dream it, you can build it¨

Welcome to the forum. Guess I need to go check the "other things we build" because I -for one- would like to see the Nautilus.
