Hi everyone

I would describe myself as an ageing geek, love gaming and recently got into paper modelling. Came across the site from paper-replika.com, I love Julius' models. As i say I'm new to paper modelling but in my younger days loved plastic kits. Working on my 9th model and trying to learn from my mistakes and try new techniques.

'allo Si, from not so far away, but across the border in God's country. No, I'm not a natural Taff, just an ol' cockney what didn't like what happened to The Smoke while I was away doin' my time in the Army.

The UK element here is getting quite strong now, but you'll find keen paper warping fans from all around the globe in these threads, with all the experience you'll ever need readily shared. Just ask, and you'll probably get way more info thrown at you than you'll ever need.

welcome to the forum. in here you will find an entire world of paper craft that will amaze and delight as maybe no other hobby can. the process is a very simple 5 steps. print, score, cut, fold, and glue. with these steps most anything from ant to ziggurat can be built.

Hello, and welcome. Like many of us did, you started in plastic. So now you've found this site, you'll love it. You'll be amazed by what you find here in the way of models. Models of every type and degree of difficulty. From beginners, to true craftsmen.
Just take your time, relax, and enjoy the hobby. That's what it's all about.
