Striking a Blow for Paper!
« on: April 29, 2024, 03:06:09 PM »
All,

My Lonhner T.1 got a second place at the Seattle IPMS Spring Show this past weekend.  Really fun to see it along with a bunch of really neat plastic models.  I also entered my Albatros and Triplane for fun. 

Great times!

Keep cutting,
Dan

Bravo Dan!!!!  Paper is closer to the real thing than plastic, and I'm sure it can be developed further. 3D+paper comes to mind.

P.S. Why the small pics? Your models deserve better.

Congratulations. That is really well deserved. For paper models to compete with plastic side by side, they truly must be masterpieces, as is your Lohner!!!

Coming from you, Prz...it's an honor.  I used your Lohner for some details too.  It's a lovely machine (the real thing and the model)!

Thank you very much,
Dan
