wieslaw_ Posted August 16, 2022 Share #1 Posted August 16, 2022 Hi everyone, thanks for leting me join to the Forum. I did start modelkits cause of my dad, he was the one who interested me in this hobby. Throughout my youthful life, I did lots of paper and plastic modelkits. Then I took a break from modeling for my work career but... a leopard can't change it's spots. A few years ago I decided to return to modeling. In the first model after this long break, I decided to used all the techniques I have learned so far at work. Which means 3D modeling and 3D printing. That's how I bild a paper-resin hybrid, polish destroyer ORP Piorun. Soon I will try to post some photos of this model that some of you may have seen on other forums. Thank you, Wieslaw mtaylor, ccoyle, Keith Black and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
