1/48 scale Dauphin

Post by splash »

This card model was built as part of the Card GB, it's my first attempt at a large complex card model and I was surprised as to how well it went together. I always thought card models had to be angular, but this has proved me wrong.

I'm now fully converted to card and can see me building more :-D

That is a beautifully made model. I can see why you are hooked on to card models with that one.
