Thanks Dave...that helps a lot. Steve In a message dated 10/17/2009 4:15:59 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Hi Steve I have approx 28 of the paper models, most came from eBay. All but 2 are related to this hobby. The only problem with eBay is that you can never count on what you want to be for sale when you want it. Just put "paper model" in the search field and it will give you a list of what is for sale at the moment. I have bought from all over the world off of eBay and have yet to have a problem, shipping is just a little slow. I also buy from a vendor out of Canada: _http://www.hobbyfactory.com/Military-Vehicles/c35/index.html_ (http://www.hobbyfactory.com/Military-Vehicles/c35/index.html) The owner is a great guy and easy to work with. Keep in mind that the instructions are rarely in English, but the amount of diagrams have more than made up for that, in most cases.

I would suggest that you always make a poster board mock up work out the pattern kinks. Can't wait to see the photos.
