    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    Those wings look very good. Personaly I would be glad that the model is pretty big. If I had to make wings like that on a small scale I would go nuts. Ugh, I think I would go nuts anyway with such a complex model......... It's gonna be a great display though, visitors will be stunned surely...

    Large scale Imperial Warships

    Just downloaded all three Nebulons and had a good look at them in pepakura viewer. They are beauties, all of them !! :thumb: Great job, and I am surely gonna build at least one them, the 1:1000. This is so fantastic, I haven't seen most of these models in any store here in Holland ever, and...

    Buck Rogers Thunderfighter mods

    See...... These are exactly the things on this forum that drive me nuts. The models you guys make are so incredibly awesome that I want to build them all at once. I made a prommise to myself to build the ISD-II by Milleniumfalshood (another fantastic model !!) first and see from there on which...

    USS SULACO by SKODA/ Jan Rükr / 1:320 Tuning

    Congratulations with the cup. It's well deserved and a humble token of what you accomplished. So many hours of effort and craftmanship created a model that presents the ultimate example of papercraft in my humble opinion. There are so many fantastic builders here but your work and this...

    Launch when ready!

    WOW... just... WOW !!! That looks brilliant to say the least..... I am so going to build this one. I dunno how you guys do it but you've got my deepest respect. I bought Pepakura designer and been toying around with it a bit but It's way beyond my grasp. I use it only for exporting pdo files...

    Large scale Imperial Warships

    I have an old piece of tree-log in my garden that looks a bit like that (without the engines), if I could carve the right part out, paint it and put a thick layer of varnish on it, then I could use that instead, it would even look good too........after a bottle of Single Malt :rolleyes: Man am...

    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    If I want to get the varnish your using then I'll have to order it somewhere in my province since there's no shop that sells it in my city Hoogeveen. The stuff is quite expensive and I would have to pay packaging and postal on top of that. What I did find is this: Humbrol Spray #49 Varnish...

    USS Sulaco / Aliens

    This must be the pinacle of papercrafting, the Holy Grail of modeling in general. Man this model is so awesome, I don't think I ever saw a model as grand as this one. No offense to all the others who make fantastic and brilliant models but personaly I'm at a loss for words regarding this...

    Mass Effect landing craft

    Awesome models ThunderChild !!! I always loved the vehicles from Mass Effect to bad they didn't put vehicle missions in Me2 and 3 as they did in Me1. Me3's ending was the biggest "say what ?" moment in my entire gaming-life (started with a commodore 64) but the vehicles are just to cool...

    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    I've been to one store but couldn't find any varnish at all. The modelstore wasn't open so I'll have to check that later. The Testor varnish is also meant for plastic models right ? I know that the modelstore has Tamiya clear spray but it's for plastic, I asume that I can use that for my...

    Hi from Scotland

    Welcome Spartacus. I'm into SF to and the Tie Fighter you mentioned is a nice model. There's a lot to learn here and it's a very friendly forum so if you have any questions just ask. When you start a model and you feel like it post some pictures of the progress of your build in a new thread...

    Large scale Imperial Warships

    Huray the Nebulon B !!!! :thumb: Fantastic job !! I'm gonna wait for the 1:1000 one though 11cm is quite small. Never realised Nebulons were that small compared to an ISD. Lots of greebling possibilities on this one, but first I'm gonna start the ISD-II. Great work man, and a dream come...

    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    I don't know these brands, the only matt varnish I used was for plastic models. The brands I used were Tamiya, Humbroll and Revell. I'll have to check what the two different stores have and see from there I think. Only thing I wonder is if you can use varnish meant for plastic models on paper...

    Building my own Y wing(s)

    Wow, that's realy shiny. Maybe if when you are ready with the rest of the coloring an overall matt varnish can take the shinyness off ? Just a thought. The detailing is great btw. Cheers, Elko

    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    I'll have to go and see if my local craft shop has this varnish, they deal in a lot of painting and aquarell materials, it's also where I buy my paper and glue etc. If they don't have it we still have a modelshop that deals in plasticmodels only and all the stuff you need for that. Do you...

    Building: U.S.S. Wanderer Class

    I haven't been building much the last couple days, my health acts up sometimes and prevents me from being able to use my hands properly. However, I was able to do some work on the computer and changed the design of the nacelles so that it's a bit easier to assemble it. The sides of the nacelle...

    Model Of The Month: Daishi's Frost Dragon by DanBKing

    THAT is a very nice........rock... No realy, it looks great, the varnish makes it so that it doesn't look like paper at all and I realy like the matt finish !! If I may ask what kinda varnish do you use for your models and where do you get it ? Since we both live in Holland it's quite likely we...

    Buck Rogers Thunderfighter mods

    You know, the Thunderfighter becomes more and more tempting to build. I never was so much into Buck Rogers, maybe because I never saw much of it on tv here. But this model is so awesome :eek: So many models I wanna build and all are fantastic....ugh! After the Wanderer I'm gonna start the...
