Hi, New Modeler Joining The Ranks!

Hi everyone, I came across Paper Modelers recently, I saw Doris's Victory, what she has made with paper and card is amazing, I hope that I shall pick up some tips for any future paper models I make.

My last paper model was the Mark Twain Paddleboat, my log for it can be found here.

I have made quite a few paper models, The most complex one was one of the Space Shuttle, complete with satalite, sadly it has now been scrapped as it was played to death by my Son!

Hi,

welcome to the site. Best kept internet secret available for membership!

Great looking models!

No problems with kids playing with them, they just collect dust otherwise!

Who likes dusting?

Best regards,
Mike Bauer

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Chris, yes, I've spotted you! I've seen some of your builds here, they're great.

I've got the Lilla Wenda boat and some free aircraft models stored on my PC at the moment, don't know when I'll have time to start them though as I'm quite busy at the moment.

The mark Twain is on display at the moment, but I don't think it will be too long before that will be played with, especially as the paddle wheel works on it, (Daniel discovered that when pushing it across the floor!)

Regards
Caroline

Welcome aboard, Caroline. Looking forward to seeing what you're working on.

BTW - you might try some chaff to entertain/distract Daniel. I've found simple little airplanes (that really fly) very popular at events. Here's one - more in the downloads.
