Greetings Guys, & Gals;


I am not sure what category this model goes into. It
is a ship, but it is not made out of styrene. It is
paper, or light cardboard.

I am going to have Office Supply print it on some
heaver paper.

If you actually build it, it'll be fine right here.

Greetings Victor,


When you purchase one of these paper model kits it is already painted.

..... But, this one is a inter-net repo, (copy),so if you have a good graphics
program, like Photo Shop, or Photo Shop Elements you may re-paint it....... ...,
the bad side of this is you have to have it printed out, because it is 1/200th scale,
to large for most printers,and you need thicker paper.

I am going to take mind to Office Supply and see which on is more expensive. Another
factor to consider. You will have to be really good with a pair of scissors to cut
the parts out... :woohoo: The model kit parts are already cut for you.




This is what she should look like when finished.

Greetings Ship builders;


... Although the styrene kits are more expensive........ I personally
think they are the way to go. Better detail, and you have the chose
of deferent paint skems.

Mike,

I just went to the GPM site and they are now offering the model (already printed at the correct scale) for $25USD:
http://www.gpm.pl/eng/index.php?akcja=produkt&edycja=193

This may be cheaper than getting it printed in color.

Looking forward to your build. Here is an online build with excellent tips:

The techniques used are VERY useful when building diorama structures out of cardboard.

...... Thank you for doing my home work for me.............

... 25.00 dollars is not a bad price to pay for the model.


..... I am looking hard at the 1/350th scale RM Roma............ I think

over all I will get more joy, and end up with a better model


Take Care... my friend,


Mike
