I used the same technique on a 1/100 Panther tank turret with equally good results. One of these days I'll finish the model.

I'm sorry...but did you print out that Qtip on paper?
and did you scale down the Qtip first??
hunh? did ya? well did ya?
sounds like skirting the rules to me...I'm just sayin'

it will just be a former that I will pull out :P I might even have an appropriately sized toothpick to use instead

the scalpel I am using to cut the paper is not made to that new scale either :P HAH

see...thats just not fair
if you are gonna follow the rules and build at such a reduced scale
then you should use the proper tools!

For example, when I have to airbrush those very small murals
and tiny little details, I break out the specialized tools...

HAHAHAHAA! Awesome! i just KNEW you had a 1:33 scale computer for doing those designs
