Here is a British car, a 1960 Alvis TD21 two door hardtop, with right hand drive. 10.5 inches long.

First, photos of the real thing.

I have been inexcusably lazy in my retirement, but enjoying it thoroughly. I am almost finished with a model of a 1999 Volga 310221, that I am building for a friend, who is an American living in Russia, and who has the real version of this car.

Not the kind of car I normally do, because I prefer American cars that were made before 1975. However, this one was done for a friend. Thought I'd share it before mailing it to him. First, the actual car:

I plan to show my whole design process, warts and all. First, I make a raw drawing. I want a scale of about 1/2 inch to the foot, so I draw a one inch diameter circle with a circle gauge, for the wheel. Then, looking at reference pictures such as ad drawings and photos of the real car, I draw...

I'm back on this forum, after being off from it for six years. Cardboard and colored paper, about 1/24 scale, built for a friend in Colorado, whose dad was a Studebaker dealer. This friend's aunt had a Starlight Hardtop in this color scheme.

I have returned to this forum after a six year absence. I built this model from cardboard and colored paper. Scale is about 1/2 inch to the foot.

Lightweight cardboard structure, white cardstock surface covering with colored pencil coloring[/ATTACH]

This is a project that I started back in August of 2011, and until now, has been dormant since 2012. It's a cardboard and colored paper model of a 1956 Packard Caribbean hardtop, in about 1/20th scale. I'll start by showing the most recent photos. Today I finished the side "pontoons"...

Two cardstock models that I designed and built, both about 1/32nd scale.

My name is Mark Crowel, and I've been a member of Zealot since maybe 2005 or 2006, but I haven't posted for at least a couple of years, so I rejoined. Looking forward to displaying my paper model car projects, and seeing other members' model cars.

About 1/32 scale. My design. Cardstock and colored paper. One of my favorites.

A recent simple construction paper, crayon colored model. My design.

I went through a time last year (2013) when I was designing and building simple, single structure models with cardstock and construction paper. This is one of those models. The scale is roughly 1/24th.

I've been away for a while. It's good to be back. 2013 was a bad year. Money troubles compounded marital problems, leading to a divorce, followed by more financial problems. Likewise, this year is off to a bumpy start. Anyway, I'm back to building again. I'm working on new projects, and...

I designed and built this recently. It's 9 and 1/8 inches long, 3.5 inches wide, and 3.25 inches high. The components are two layers thick. There is a 110 lb. cardstock structure layer, overlaid with a white construction paper layer, on which I printed the pictorial details, then colored with...

So far, I have threads for displaying about a half dozen of my cardboard model cars on the Model Cars Magazine Forum (http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?act=idx). Even though this is plastic territory, all of my models have received positive and encouraging comments from the forum...

Here is the link to my photos of this model. Approximately 1/24th size. http://cardboardmodelcarshowcase.lefora.com/2012/05/12/1953-studebaker-starliner-hardtop/#post0

This link will take you to the thread that shows the entire repair process on the Toy Studebaker Collectors Club Forum. http://tscc-online.lefora.com/2011/01/01/restoration-project/ This is the finished model. Cardboard was used to fill in the badly warped roof, and was used to replace...
