Wanting to try something new so I thought I'd join here and find about about paper models. Like the 1/200 scale but won't buy the Trumpeter models because I wish to stay married. Looks interesting.

Welcome, Mosey.
You'll find that the skills required for paper modeling are not harder than for plastic, just different. To start, I'd suggest the V1 and V2 models from Currell graphics. They are free, they're well-designed, his instructions are excellent, and the two kits will show you most of the basics of paper modeling.

By all means, ask questions. That's what this forum is about.
And have fun!
