Addicted to card modeling and historical evidence :)

Hello all,

I'm Alex, aged 49, living near Hannover, Germany together with my beloved wife, son and 2 dogs.

Nearly since I was born I'm addicted to naval history, love research as well as model building (mainly from cardboard). Maybe you'd like to see one of my creations at Papermau Blogspot. My actual project is Revell's USS United States 1/150 (in fact it's about 1/220), shown in 1842 condition. Much of the parts I recreated from cardboard, so if you're interested I'll open a new topic for that.

If you've got any questions, feel free to contact me.

 

Best regards

Alex
