    Windows 8

    Hi All, Being of generally unsound mind and doubtful sanity, I have decided to become an early adopter of Windows 8. The main reasoning behind this is everytime they come up with a new operating system I usually waited until as long as a year before jumping in figuring that they would get...

    Tinkering Around With Water Colors

    Hi All, After shooting photos for my projects in card models for more than a few years now it dawned on me that I was missing something that I used to use all the time with my styrene models. I will admit that I do sort of have a reason aside from just plain forgetting about it, I usually...

    Store Bought and Ready Made

    Hi Everyone, Since I do like to add as many details to my models as I can but often times lack the patience, skill and talents that many folks who have been card modeling for a long time seem to be able to whip right out. I have to look for other means to be able to do a credible job. Sure...

    Hexaflexagon

    Morning Everyone, I was going through my E Mail this morning and came across this little gem from the Kim Kommando website. Since it does indeed use paper, I thought it was highly appropriate for our hobby. Enjoy...

    The Kallboys Site

    Hi All, I was pointed at this site by the German forum I belong to and thought I would share it with everyone here. It is basically a bowling league club website that has a few models available to share for free. Check it out. I downloaded the Caledonia Ship Model, a 1/100 scale river...

    Papertoy Propaganda

    Hi All, I was trolling about some of my favorite paper and card model sites, yes, I know, hard to believe that we find it necessary to stray from Zealot, but we do on occassion. ;) At any rate, I was over at Paper Replika and found this interesting little figure from Paper Tom (Stephane...

    How About a 1:1 Enterprise?

    HI All, I was checking the E Mail the other day and was sent a rather interesting link to an "Enterprising" site (All puns fully intended!). I have often considered what it would be like to go traipsing off to space exploring off world mysteries and seeing what there was to see. Now here is...

    U-Boat Molch "Salamander" by GPM 1/25 Scale

    Hi All, I decided that I just had to start this one even though I have a couple of other irons in the fire. The only mention of one of these that I have been able to locate on the site here is where one of the members mentioned one that he had built and taking it to an IPMS meeting. This is...

    USS Selfridge DD 357 1/200 Scale

    Hi All, Since I am winding down the current build of one ship model it is time to get underway with the next one. I have chosen the USS Selfridge DD 357, a Porter Class Destroyer. She was laid down in the New York Shipbuilding Yard at Camden, NJ, December 18,1933; the same day and place as...

    The Devil is in The Details

    Hi All, I do like my ship models, fortunately in card modeling, ship models take off from where the styrene world of ship models pretty much leaves off. I have done the 1/700 scale trip to the point of exhaustion and while braile scale is great if you want to work on a lot of models in a...

    Imperial Russian Battleship Novgorod, or some serious circular thinking and design.

    Hi All, I have decided to give this little Russian Battleship in the round a try. I purchased the Gremir Models version of it a couple of years ago and it has been languishing, stashed away in my hard drive. It is a 1/200 scale model, my favorite ship scale at the moment. For those of you...
