Heya, paper modelers!
Hailing from Montreal, Canada. I'm relatively new to paper (about a year, my fourth model in); previously I have been building some dioramas out of pretty much anything, and plastic kits (still do sometimes).
Modeler's profile:
Time period (mostly): 1910s to 1950s.
Scale: between 1:35 and 1:250.
Current interests:
- Land ('40s-'60s usually): Busses, trams, small trucks. 1:64 scale buildings (for my son's Matchbox fleet :P)
- Water: small ferries and passenger hydrofoils, early Dreadnought-era battleships, small or medium converted research vessels (think Tintin's Sirius and Aurora, or Jacques Cousteau's Calipso).
- Air: WWII bombers, small or medium cargo and passenger planes.
I like 'em in context, so usually make a vignette or at least a ground plate in place of a stand for my models.
So far built:
- 1920's Brussels tramway, scratch. First try, didn't even know that paper kits existed. Stumbled upon paper modeling sites half way through the construction :)
- Digital Navy's Lilla Weneda. First kit, partially painted. Messy. So satisfying.
- A Polish fishing boat as an Aral Sea wreck. Grouted, painted, etc. Fun quick project.
Currently in the works:
PBY-2 Catalina (1:50)
In development:
A runabout boat (1:35) for the Indiana Jones Last Crusade vignette (boat chase scene :p) Awaiting the third beta build. Also if anyone knows where to get a 1:35 Harrison Ford let me know =)
Peace out.
