Newbie Signed on
Just found this site, referred from rcgroups. Primarily interested in building RC electric flying models. Saw a post using paper models for patterns and art work.
I have built paper models before, and just about any kind of model. Hoping to be able to use my Photoshop/illustrator/3d skills from work on a build. Looking forward to looking around this site. rtcapo

H Rtcapo,
As a paper model designer, I frequently 'lurk' in the RCGroups looking for ideas and tips on how to design the internal framework of the aircraft. Welcome to the forums.  Eric

Hi there! Welcome to the site. Thanks for joining.
Feel free to explore the forum, ask questions and enjoy yourself. Have you made many paper models? I don't know how many RC'ers we have here but I do know we have several pop up from time to time. Hope you find what you are looking for. We're glad you're here. Welcome aboard.

Made a few paper models, mostly airplanes. A few years ago when the internet opened up and I found fiddlers green.
I do a lot of work on photoshop at work. i would like to do some custom repaints and scale them up for flying. Also did some 3d modeling too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wNO1OP36B8 In the back of my mind i use to think it would be easier to photoshop the skins...but after building and flying rc planes...helping to restore a 1958 Cessna 172...thinking it's easy and doing the "easy" way always turns out longer! Like today, I've always had a soft spot for a Volvo pv 444/544 since the movie "The World According to Garp". This first time I saw it, I said: "What the heck is that?" After researching, forgetting, digging up old files...and then searching for a "easy" restore job...I thought, that would be easy. Then I read about a guy who started to restore a PV544 just the way I'd want it. Running good inside...look like a college kid's heap on the outside. He bought it for $1000 and put about 8K just to keep it running in a "sleeper" condition...after about 6 years of work. Anyway, I think I'm a better modeler than mechanic. Thanks for the rant, boys. rtc Last edited by rtcapo; 12-03-2014 at 07:18 PM. Reason: proof read
