Hello breton56! Welcome to the forum. Thanks for joining. I'm with VK, what type of wood models do you make? Do you make cardboard mockups the same size as your finished model or do you make them in a reduced size? We're glad you're here. Welcome aboard!

Hello, and welcome. Once you see what can be done using just paper you'll soon realize how amazing it is, and want to build paper as well as wood kits.

Your English is far better than my French (or my Brezhoneg, which is non-existent)!
