richter111 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I am always amazed at the card modelers. talent, pure and simple Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark M. Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I've seen some of Claudio's work. It is nice. I don't think it quite captures the compound curves on automobiles very well, but there is a lot you can do. I prefer it myself for hard-to-find sci-fi subjects.

Hans Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 (edited) for card models, compound curves really is a challenge... I've seen people eliminate those with putty and a lot of sanding, but that will make it a "multimedia" model of sorts... I work on both mediums (paper and plastic), and it helps me a lot when I build either one...

K5054NZ Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I attempted an own-design Decepticon scout, Vanquish, from the Airfix 1:32 Aston Martin DBR9. It has a sprue skeleton and maybe three or four other parts not from the original kit. And guess what? A couple of months into the build the newest animated show, Transformers: Prime, introduced a Decepticon with a very Aston Martin-looking altmode! I'm very tempted to buy his figure and paint him as Vanquish... Edited June 29, 2012 by K5054NZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Youngtiger1 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Now, some of those look very nice and interest that I can tackle them and finish one. Thanks for sharing. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
