Card models

[Ray Durant]

Hi guys.

Can anyone please help me to access building logs.

I have just purchased a Shipyard card model from a store in France.

I would really like to familiarize myself with the different techniques used to build these models.

Cheers .

I'd start by going to the kit area and searching using "CARD" as the key word.  Also set the search for "titles only".  

 

Also there is this area for discussion but no build logs:  https://modelshipworld.com/forum/28-card-and-paper-models/

I've got Shipyards HMS Wolf on the shelf waiting. What one did you buy?

 

@catopower is doing an in depth log of his HMS Wolf build. I've added the link below. 

 

 

You can find other shipyard kits if you type in "Shipyard" in the search bar.

Hi 

Thanks for the information.

I really appreciate it.

I bought the Papegojan, as it is a Dutch ship and i was born in Amsterdam.

A little nostalgia 😀

We also have a card modeling tutorial based on a WW1 torpedoboat -- different, subject but same basic techniques. The guy who wrote it seems to have a rudimentary grasp of the subject.

Thanks Ccoyle.

I will study these instructions very closely.

I had a quick glance and this guy knows his stuff.👍👍

I don’t know whether you already looked elsewhere, but the eastern half of Eirope is home to some very good builders. There are some very nice card-websites over there.

The Shipyard kits are very nice.  I bought one of the 30th Anniversary combo sets and started their Mercury.  The level of detail is incredible.

 

The laser cut frame that comes with the kits is fall together quality.  From there, just take your time.
