airfixpeter Posted April 3, 2021 Author Share Posted April 3, 2021 I have decided to invest in some quick boost machine guns although slightly out of scale at 1/32 I don't think it's that noticble. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 AM detailing on a cardboard model- taking it to a whole new level. I'm intrigued to see how the engines come out- complex curves are hard, I'm not convinced that in card they're anything less than impossible. Equally I think though that if anyone can , you can because this is coming on a dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mjwomack Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 In still coming to terms with the size of it, not sure I've ever seen so much cardboard before. Certainly not in a model 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
