Greetings from chilly England

Hi,

I'm Hamish, sayingf a big hello to everyone at Paper Modelers! I'm branching out from plastic modelling to paper modelling these days as there's all sorts of wondeful things in paper that aren't modelled anywhere else. I'm looking forward to learning how to build better paper models and make some really interesting things!

Cheers

Hamish

Howdy Hamish, if you looking of learning about paper modeling then you couldn't have come to a better place. The modelers here at PM forum are the best. I was wondering how close do live to VLT? wc

Hello and welcome from cold NYC. Supposed to warm up later this week.

Indeed the switch from plastic to paper is a good one. Many reasons to switch, one, the price of plastic kits. I check them out and when I see one I like, I look at the price, then walk away. Second, with paper models, there are tons you can download both free and paid ones. The beauty there is, you mess up, which not one person here on this site will ever admit to. You simply crank up the computer and printer and low and behold, print a new kit.
So this is indeed a great hobby, and you'll find this site is filled with people from every walk of life, and ability when it comes to building.

So you've come to the right place.
