Hello. I'm Karl (or "fsintegral" elsewhere)
As stated, I live in Antananarivo, Madagascar. French speaking primarly, so, please forgive me when I make writing mistakes or weird sentences. I don't use a translator nor have a spell checking plugin.
I'm, err, I don't remember, around 34 years old. I started to make paper planes and cars when I was 2 or 3, with paper, cissors, glue and stick. I recently discovered through the web there are paper kits and quite a lot of people doing what I've tried, but at a much more accurate scale. I thought I was alone (well I'm probably the only one doing that in Madagascar)
I'm interrested in building paper planes. Yes, I love planes and I'm focused on airliners, mostly. Sorry for those who like cars, trains, boats, tanks and spaceships, etc. But honestly, I'll probably use a little more than paper and glue (nothing that "advanced" though, I don't even have the proper tools nor could purchase whatever available online, and there is not a single "paper and alike" specialized store here. We have nails and hammers, that's it)
I plan to build a 747-200B. 1:72. We have lots of room here. I think it would take me one or two years. I tried the Air Tahiti Nui A340 (from Canon I think) I only have a black and white printer. Made the nose and wasn't satisfied with the result (too much glue and the paper started to bend) I also recently tried two own made 1:100 737 nose for experiments purpose, with foam, paper towel sticked with wood glue, sanded then painted. Quite interresting and rather strong. That's why I said I'll use a little more than paper. The 747 would be my first "serious" project. Then an A340-300 maybe, or 767-300.
Apart that paper modeling project, I build 3D models for Flight Simulator with a tool called GMax. Saw on a few topics some of you are flightsimmers. Great, I'm not alone. I also make a few aircraft profiles (like JetAbout or J. Heilig) And in real life, I'm a programmer.
Well. I don't really know what to say, but you've guessed it : I talk too much. I found PaperModelers while looking for some material/documents online for a 3D model of the MD11 and JS31 I'm currently building. And voila!, I'm here :)
