Thanks guys. Yes I know John - what you see here was created from just a single sheet of A4 thin card! However, this is nothing compared to some of the other card models available, as the link provided by Creosotewind has demonstrated. Here's another one to marvel at - it's a card model of Rommel's half track "Greif", built by the same chap who's building that SE5a I posted about some time ago http://www.scale-models.co.uk/view.php?pg=sdkfz2503 |

Thank you poppy :-) As pleased as I am with how this turned out as a first attempt, though, it is as nothing compared to some of the card models out there. These Fiddlers Green ones are fairly easy to put together, but less detailed (although still quite impressive, I'm hope you will agree?) than some I've seen. These other models, of various subjects - aircraft, tanks, ships etc - would truly amaze you at their complexity and level of detail. I honestly believe that in some cases one would find it hard at first glance to tell the difference between a card model and either a plastic or balsa/tissue model. For the time being, though, I will stick to these relatively simple Fiddlers Green card models (of which there are LOTS at their website - www.fiddlersgreen.net), which I hope to be building many more of in addition to the balsa ones, and maybe progress to the more complicated models at a later date. |
