Paper model copy - Page 2

Google seems to be hosting a lot of images from this shop recently...
To me... I can only feel suspicious. They don't have any photos/previews of their products, so I have no idea what the model even looks like. There are some kits listed with CAD models on the cover, but the quality is inconsistent... Most of the models look absolutely rubbish.
Just not enough information, and the products are waay too expensive. Would be interesting to take a look into the sample requested by Rick, if they actually reply.
Everything there just seems too fishy to me!!

I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole.

These are the CAD 3D files. I am not sure what they contain but usually they are fairly detailed. I have used CAD files to build complex machines and various ship cabins and modifications. With Autocad they are based on dimensions. I have not made any paper templates from a CAD drawing yet but that is next on my learning curve. The price is not excessive as you may generate many different scale models and levels of complexity. <https://model-copy.info/index.php?language=en&cat=247> is the index for ships. This 3d model can be used in various projects and presentations, for making a scale model of a copy, for printing on a 3d printer (preparation for 3d printing is carried out by the buyer). You can edit with such programs as: Rhinoceros 3D, Cinema 4D, AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, Maya, 3D Studio Max, etc. Hope this helps.

I don't see anything that has to do with paper models?

These are 3D (cad) models for digital work.
These are normal prices for cad files of this type.

There is a section called Scale Models....these look like the same thing but ready for 3D printers.

When the original post was put up. The link the OP posted had paper models, but the scale models links on the second link comes up as a 404 page, not found

Scale Models link works fine for me...it has 2-1/100 scale models, 2-1/72 models, and 2-1/87 models.
These are cad files most likely for 3D printers.

The link OP posted is an incorrect html address...it contains no specific page connection,
the 404 is generated by the site template for that reason.
So this was not directed to a paper model page.
And there's no paper models page in the site map.

I think you guys were entranced by the look of 3D cad designs
and made a mistake thinking there were paper templates there.
Wishful thinking? lol
