Hiya friends,
So I started taking a look at AXM's Delta IV rocket kit this weekend for a quick distraction while paint dries on other projects. AXM helpfully provided uncolored pages for the body of the Common Core Boosters and recommended that modelers source colored card stock for the "Tangelo" orange color which in my case, also comes with a bit of texture that helps sell the appearance of this rocket.
Unfortunately, I'm running into some difficulty rolling this stock. As I try to work the paper from over large diameters of 15cm down to the final 3.5cm finished tube, the paper is creasing and cracking despite rubbing with my fingers to encourage the new memory. I'm a bit flummoxed so I thought I would see what you all thought.
Since the stock is a dollar a sheet, I don't have a lot of trial and error to play with. I keep thinking to hold the sheet over some steam? But since its already 11:00pm, I thought I would ask and sleep on it.
