Decided to scratch build a wheeled 40K armored vehicle. The main construction is built on the rhino body. The sides are slanted and the rear ramp is scratched built. It has side access door and the power plant is to the rear. The turret is modified similar to a Chimera turret. I was going...

Surfs up and COWABUNGA. great find.

checking in to see if the uploads is working, more catch up on the build thread.

And now, to continue with the build.

Just tried to upload, no joy.

test upload; Nope. Not working for me. Did the upload file, drag and drop, copy paste. so far no joy. Only thing left is to link to gallery. http://heavyoxide.deviantart.com/art/163space-marine-space-wolf-511447712 Well that link attachment seems to work. I may have to start updating my...

Thanks for the update.

thanks for looking in Zathros. The model is a bit slow going as I experiment with different techniques in the build process. I am having problems uploading the files at the moment. I reduce my files to low settings for web and I get an error message that they are to large. Any smaller, and...

Thanks for sharing. I recommend that sometime later, make another printout of the seatbelts. I like the build so far, especially in how you have kept the frame straight. I had a slight problem in the nose section, which wanted to droop down. Those wing strut attachment are very fragile...

Thanks for the comment Zathros. I always did like this plane but never got around to building it. The build continues albeit a bit slower than I usually build. There are some issues on the attachment of the lower wings. Because of the full cockpit, I will have to cut the lower wings and a...

Here are some more updates on the Stearman. So far it is going along nicely and I am looking forward to the rigging later on.

More on the Stearman. The engine is a bit oversize for the plane, it looks like a Super Wasp. Regardless, the making of the smaller engine is still the same technique. I will continue on with this Beta Build until I get around to making the full build thread.

More on the Glaug. The foot pads are wrong but I will continue on with this version. To make the correct ones, is the same procedures. Later on, I may make the corrected ones for it. This is still a Beta project for me.

More updates on the Mecha. It is slow going since I am doing two projects simultaneously. So far, I have not run into any serious problems. I am scratch building as I go, so no templates for this except what I am using as reference.

Thanks for looking in and sorry for the delayed reply. Here is a small update on the Glaug. The legs are next on the list and they are laminated heavily. It will have some articulation to help pose the Mecha and then the legs can then be glued into position.

Yes I see, but overall, Julius version is very basic for a beginner. There are more discrepancies but I will adapt to them. Going slow for the moment but here are some updates on the beta build. The landing gear is a long paper stick which enters into the fuselage and is glued to the frontal...

This is what I am presently working on, Taking Julius (Paper-Replika) Stearman and modifying it into an early version of the old Bi-Plane cropduster like the one seen in Independence day. I am making a full cockpit for the two seater version and the single seater cropduster. It requires a bit of...

Welcome aboard to you and your wife. If you see something that you would like to build, check out the forum for a build thread on it. By doing so, you will learn of any problems with the kit and how to adapt to it. Paper is a forgiving material, and if you screw up, you can always print...

All good things must come to an end and so it is with the Dreadnaught. It is now part of the paper model archives. I am pleased to those who looked in now and then and enjoyed the build thread. It is now time to move on with the next project. I am in the process of rebuilding Julius's PT-17...

For a Mech, you picked the right techno music for it. Now if you can do a stop motion sequence for it and put it into action, it does have the articulated joints for it. Heck, make it dance to the Techno Gundam Style.
