Not sure if i a the only person in Ireland that does paper modeling I doubt it do.. but going on the number of shops that sell card models it is not popular at all. not one shop that i know of sells card models. the only ones I have ever come across were in bargain shops and were nowhere near detailed as some of the card models I have seen on sites like this one

Welcome friend to what i call the FUN HOUSE. It really is a great forum and one you will feel at home in. What part of Ireland are you from ? and more importantly.... what models do you like to make ?

I am from Galway but living in Dublin now. I love making cars in card. I did loads when I was younger and only in the last few years took it up again. Small bedsit is not big enough for doing big complicated models.. right now I am doing models for the Malek Marathon my first venture into card model airplanes. I look at it this was as you learn to do things and helps when doing your own designs..
