When I was a kid models came on cereal boxes.

Usually the ones I didn't like. However I ate it to get the models.

 I also had an uncle that bought me a WWII solder set and a medieval castle.

I really liked those. Also there was a KIX send off that was nice.

To stay in models I learned to make my own from cardboard covers on coat
hangers.

The cardboard was about 1.25 inches by 14 inches when folded in half over
the coat hangers and had a natural airfoil shape.

My dad was always mad at me because of the creases in his pants from the
lack of the cardboard.

Also my models would fly.

Subject: Re: [Papermodels II 43962] What got you get started on papercraft?

 

My addiction started when I was in high school. I discovered Origami.. but
it wasn't until my son also found Origami (though finding my old books) that
I went online to search for more patterns... the world of papercraft jumped
out at me and I was hooked. :)  This was only about a year ago too!
