Outstanding Ray! You amaze me at being able to make such beautiful models at so small a scale.

Congrats Texman! Glad to see others competing at IPMS shows with their paper projects! And ALWAYS glad to see paper bring home some metal! There is no better proof of alchemy than this.:D

Maybe I should write them and point that out..

Zot,

I sent Scale Auto an e-mail regarding Ken Hamilton's comments in the Tip's and Techniques section. I also responded to a thread on Scale Auto's forum about Oct issue's paper model related items. Go ahead and chime in as well! The more the merrier.

If you have more questions, just ask. I'm sure I left something out.

Ahhh...yes....now I know what that nagging piece of missing information sitting in the back of my brain hiding from the world is all about. 8v)

I thought I had seen something about it...just couldn't get it to come out.

One thing to remember Ash, each panel is individually masked, and any area not being worked on is masked off completely. The powders tend to spread very well.

Congratulations Ray, a very well earned and deserved award:D. They are amazing pieces of work, my fingers are bigger than your models

Best wishes
