Hmmm;I can do this .

Hi PFJN;

  No it's no more difficult than cutting wood to shape based on plans .The plastic thicknesses are easy to handle and you can use parts box or found items to detail the ship as well.

 Plus you can use any P.E. That will work !  T.B.

This site has lots of tips for paper modelling and lots of great builds with tips..

Hi TB,

I have to admit everytime I think about trying to build the paper model pre-dreadnaught that I bought the thought keeps crossing my mind of how I could maybe 3D print some part, or use sheet styrene or styrene shape for some other part.  I guess going all out to just use the paper model data for a template for a scratch built plastic model wouldn't really be that big a leap
