Well...I tried and tried to make everything from paper, except rigging, of course, but never succeeded in make a proper hull (I am building ships). So I decided to make the frames, and first layer of hull plating from MDF (frames) and balsa (hull plating). The rest I build from card board and paper, second layer of hull plating (Showing the plating as on the real ship) and super structures and deck. So the basis of my model is "not" paper, just to give it a good start and a perfect finish for the card board. Also, with this method I prevent warping of my models, they are nice straight and sturdy.
John.
