old papercat

I am an italian modeller of 68 years old . The passion for modelling started when I was a boy , assembling plastic kits . My favorite subjects are WW2 airplanes and tanks in small scale . Now I am interested to papermodels as they are very nice and can be assembled faster and without paints.
So here I am......

Thanks Papercat

Hi there Old Papercat. Welcome to the forum. 68 ain't old mate, I wish I was 68 again.
Noticing you haven't put up an avatar picture yet, I wondered if this is of any use to ya?



If you'd rather build yer own it's a Canon American Short Hair, blown up from the A4 Pdf to fit on A3 card.

American Shorthair - Land Animals - Animals - Paper Craft - Canon Creative Park

Sitting by my back door it drives next door's Tom cat crazy.

Hi there papercat! Welcome to the forum. Thank you for joining. We have a great bunch of WWII aircraft modelers, and a great crew of small tank builders, you should fit right in. Since you are new to the hobby you should read (not all at once!) the First Cuts - A Lounge and the Tips & Tricks subforums. They are full of good information that will help get you on your way. Also suggest you look in the Downloads section of this forum for some easy models to build. This will help you to develop the skills necessary to be a successful paper modeler. If you have questions, and you will, just ask. We'll do our best to get you the correct answer(s). We're glad you're here. Welcome aboard!
