New to Forum and Paper Modeling

Hello All,
Happy to have found this forum as I have only recently had my eyes opened to the world of card modeling.

Have worked in plastic and balsa for some time, but had no idea of the possibilities in paper.

Hope to read and learn from you all.
Jonathan

Welcome, Jonathan. There's something about turning a flat piece of paper into a 3D model that you don't get in other mediums.

What types of models do you enjoy most?

Warm Welcome

Thanks to all for the warm welcome, kind words and encouragement.
As to modeling subjects, what caught my attention about card modeling was the bounty of large zeppelin/airship models. Short of scratch building, card modeling appears to offer several opportunities in the 1:200 and larger scale.
Other than that, I'm drawn to funky and esoteric vehicles - land, sea, or air.
