    Authentic, unbuilt InnerBrain EVA model on ebay

    Yep, one has surfaced via a seller in Denmark. Opening bid $50, certainly has the potential to go a *lot* higher. http://cgi.ebay.com/Eva-paper-model-figure-Neon-Genesis-Evangelion-Anime_W0QQitemZ6057953990QQcategoryZ11424QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Same seller also has the Votoms ScopeDog (also...

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    Re: M3A2 was a one-of-a kind The racks and pulpit could all easily be left off, they aren't integral to anything. The model itself is very plain, and very simple really. There is a ton of room for little scratch built details and additions. (As the current front page picture shows all too...

    Admirable replacement

    Well, http://www.modelexpo-online.com/ carries just about every wooden ship model in existance, including a dinghy and whaleboat, but in 1/12. I subscribe to their catalog, and they have particularly nice clearance sales every great once in a while.

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    Nope, its as done as its going to get. I like gawking at the craftsmanship some of these folks put into their works, but I don't mind the edges showing. I actually like the paper models to look like they are made of paper in the end.

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    This project was starting to make me twitchy, since I've got several other flymodels in the stack, and they probably have the same kinds of flaws. Not that I don't have the skills to make a perfect model look flawed anyways. To be fair, most of the badly fitting bits were too large and...

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    Well, its done. Still need to permanently glue the tracks to the wheels and all, but that'll be whenever. Anyways, if anyone ever wants to know what the flymodel M3A2 looks like, there you go. BTW, is this forum always this dead? Kinda depressing. Maybe the regulars are too busy cutting...

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    OK, a lot more done. In fact, it'll probably be a wrap tomorrow evening. This thing has continued on as it started. Every single time a curved part meets anything else, they are as if drawn by two different people. And of the three compound curved pieces (the headlight cowlings and...

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    Well, after a little digging, I found a picture of this model built-up, on the inside cover of the M3 Stuart (FLY 65). Noticed two things: - They've cut down the front leaf springs to mount the front axle much closer to the frame than it appeared to be in the contruction diagrams (Assuming...

    M3A2 Halftrack FLY #22 - a warning

    Ever find yourself in the middle of building a model and realize that the designer must have been building something entirely different than what you are? This is an older design, typical semi-decent print registration, occassionally vague and/or completely mislabeled diagrams, etc. None of...

    Sure. Railroad related models are pretty common in paper, here's some links to a few retailers I've bought from that carry them: http://www.lighthousemodelart.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=8 http://www.hobbyfactory.com/index.php/cPath/29?osCsid=032dded895ff0fe2670d8900ee0fca1f...
