Hello Guys,

I just joined yesterday and discovered that you guys are also into this hobby. I started mine about 6 years ago and have about 500 models in my collection. I have build about 50 of them only but now my work is weighing me down and don't have time to do them. I was thinking of collecting as much as possible and wait for my retirement to enjoy all this. Don't get me wrong, I am not even 40 yet!!

I have bought from fiddler's green from US http://www.fiddlersgreen.net/ and
peramodels http://www.venus.dti.ne.jp/~kpd/member.html from Japan. I used Kodak coated paper 115gsm and laminate them with clear PVC (it makes them looked like plastics) Printed them with my Lexmark 605, cut them with my trusted satinless steel scissors and X-Acto #11 hobby knife on a cutting mat. I prefer to use the contact adhesive (rubber glue) for sticking them together.

I will try to post my collection in the future as I am still learning how to get my way around this forum (He...He..) huh.gif wink.gif

Can't help it..... the paper is thick but sometime ago...... some guys in the smartgroup forum said to actually colour the sides with matching colour to hide the white but this is too troublesome and I left it as it is...... Yes.... I like the Canon site..... it has a lot of toys and they are quite interesting. I also bought from fiddlersgreen website and I am a lifetime member after I paid close to RM400 for it..... and also Peramodel as well as Raspera. Have you bought any from any sites?
