Smile New to the forum and to paper modelling overall

Hello,

My name is Miguel. Just got into papercraft due to my sudden (almost obsessive) interest for scale-modelling. As an alternative to getting all that is needed for working with plastics and paint, I found this hobby which is also as passionate and detailed as plastic scale modelling. Wish to soonly begin to make dioramas, related to city car driving or transit. Love to see roads and cars properly operating on them IRL, so why not representing them on scale.

Hope to get to find some great people and even friends!

Greetings from Jalisco, Mexico to you all !

Hey welcome. Love the Jalisco style of cooking. Anyway lots of stuff here to see and learn. There's a bunch of sites with buses if you like smaller scales. Ex-transit bus driver myself.

Thanks , glad to know you love cars as well. Have never created a model for anything in my life, the only papercraft work I have done thus far is a lovely BMW E30 320i. It was not neatly crafted but I think it is decent for my first try. At the moment I am doing the very same E30 model but have edited its color to be blue, will also add some mexican plates to it and some other neat accurate details, surely hoping to make a great 2nd attempt at paper.modelling. (Will check your website as soon as I can, curently busy at Uni.)
