Mine was a huge desire to make things but lack of money. Paper modelling was a cheap way for me to create. I didn't have to buy lots of equipment, just some card and some printer ink. I started with the free models, then progressed to Fiddlers Green and a few others. Eventually I want to construct a heap of buildings/terrain for my wargames table. This is awhile off happening, as I have just rediscovered photography!
There is just something about creating a 3D model from flat sheets of paper. It's a form of creation. I have a similar thrill when I finish painting a miniature or taking a photograph. Difficult to put into words, but I suspect many of you know what I mean. -- “Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammed Ali <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Ali> My photo blog: www.raytookthis.com Buy my photos: www.redbubble.com/people/groo12 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Papermodels II" group.
