A church

Hi Pawel !

 Hey  , thank you for being patient with me . I  have that friend with the trains who has that church . He is using different sizes of buildings and objects , to get a forced perspective look . Myself I just am happy to have Modelarz and others . Have a Good day , Please ? T.B.

Hello Dman!

Thanks a lot for your kind words!

Check out the link at the beginnig of this thread - it's jus one of many companies that design paper models in Poland. They are perfect for building on long business trips, where you don't need a large workshop. They are also great for developing scratchbuilding skills. And above all they are also fun to build.

Plus they are cheap, usually pretty big and can be pretty detailed. As you can tell I'm a big fan.

Thanks for dropping by, good luck and have a nice day

Hey Pawel.  This is very well done.  I don't know anything about paper models, but after seeing this, I am curious.   I will be retiring in about 3 1/2 years, and will have more time to try different types of modeling, and this is definitely going to be on my list.

Again, you did a really good job on this!  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks a lot, Don!

That church is really nice!

T.B. - that really sounds like a chore. I was content with the way the parts were printed, just touched them up with acrylic paint in places where the paper egde was showing.

The scale of the model is 1:100, but I guess you could enlarge it to 1:87 (the difference is noticeable). That's the beauty of paper models.

My friend once has built from scratch a model of the train station where his grandpa used to work way back in the sixties. He also glued the individual planks on the water tower, and so on. Here's how it turned out:

Pat - thanks a lot, I'm glad you like it!

Hi,

That came out really nice.

OOOh Pawel;

 You're gonna start something here . I like that . Now , would you believe a friend has that model on his train layout ? He went and spent more than eighty hours putting individual shingles on the roof areas ! !   T.B.

Hello!

Thanks a lot for your comments!

modelcrazy - while of course you can weather paper models, in this case and in the case of most modern paper models the weathering is already printed on the parts. This kit is particularily nice in this regard.

By the way - here's the photo of the real thing:

Thanks again, and have a nice day
