Post by: gomidefilho on February 12, 2015, 01:26:11 AM

One more model of Der kampfflieger range, in this case is a 1/100 Nieuport 24C1 in colors of the ace Willian Herrison (11 victories)...

Another very nice looking model Péricles, what is the main reason that you build your models in 1:100 scale?

Thank's.

Many reasons, but the mainly is a lack of space for storage the finished models, the second is a search for scale between 1/144 and 1/72, 1/100 is easy for made scratchs too, since 1 meter equal 1cm. The challenge and surprise of small is very pleaseant too. ;)

That's one great advantage to paper models. You can build them in any scale you wish, within reason. It's usually better to scale a model down than to up-res it, unless it's all in a vector format. Bit map textures will blur if you scale up.

Also, for some reason, common scales in paper are different than in plastic. Plastic will do 1/32, 1/48, and 1/72, while paper will do 1/33, 1/50, 1/60, and 1/100. But of course, as I said, paper can change to any scale with just a quick setting change on your printer.
