I came across some old photos of some of my early card models. This one is a Polish WZ-X (as in 'WZ Ten') published by Cardplane. This was the first 'real' card airplane I ever built, as opposed to some earlier efforts that were simpler free models in assorted scales. Apologies for the poor photo quality -- these were made with our first digital camera, and the technology wasn't what it is today. Enjoy!

I noticed several aircraft and a ship that you pulled out of your archive   .  .  this one from seventeen years ago.  This is my favorite. Looks like the old camera did quite well.  The photos look good as does the work.  Thanks for sharing these with us.

Thanks, Mike. I found these photos over at kartonbau.de. I'd completely forgotten I had shared them there. A couple of the models had build logs posted on the old paper modeling forum that was taken over by Zealot years ago (you probably remember those sad events) -- I was so irked by Zealot's heavy-handed tactics that I took down all my content there. Some of the photos I have posted today are stored on CDs that I can no longer access easily, seeing as I don't own any CD drives.

 

Cheers!

I think you can get a USB attachable external CD drive,  Chris.  I have a USB attachable 3.5 inch floppy drive for all my old floppy disk, also one to attach an old hard drive.
