Hey Y'all

I'm Dave R from Central Florida. I've been modeling many years but have only recently begun working in paper. Mostly I want to work in 1:48 to keep in scale with my On30 railroading but am interested in the possibilities of other scales.
Thanks in advance for the help,
Dave

Welcome to the forum Dave! Paper modeling is great for sticking to one scale... if the model you want is in a different scale just resize and print. If you haven't been there yet http://www.fiddlersgreen.net/ has a wide variety of buildings that many people fancy up and use in their RR setups. ECardmodels.com Shop is another good source. Happy modeling, and don't forget to post some pics for us!

Thanks for all the greetings.
Hot? Not like "just north of Dallas". Rich, wish I could send you some of this rain.
I'm one of the last pre-Disney Natives, so I can unabashidly use "Y'all"

I haven't read the FAQs yet but I ordered plans for a Sidewheeler and think that will be my first build. I'm sure I'll have some never asked before questions.

I thought I'd try to post some photos of my previous (non-paper) work.

Well, that didn't work! Sorry, back to FAQ.

I still wonder why south Fl talks like the north....and the other way for the north......
Any ways welcome!

You may need to resize the photos and/or convert them into a compatible format.

Below is the manage attachements tool which lists supportable formats and acceptable sizes.....just in case you forgot.
