Do Robocops prefer toroidal pastries?


I found the pattern for this Robocop card model on a web site along with 49 others.



Most of the model designers are Japanese.



We are due for a visit from our grandson, and I thought he might enjoy putting together some of the robots. Maybe a little simpler one than Robocop, though, as he took me about five hours to assemble.

Fun with card models

I got the pdf file pattern for this MiG-15 for free along with a couple others from the Fiddlers Green web site just for registering a new account. I also purchased a float plane for a few dollars that I'm hoping to build soon.



I'm finding card modeling to be a lot of fun. There are a lot of simple, free model patterns which can be downloaded from the web to get you started. I've also found a friendly and helpful group of modeling enthusiasts at the Paper Modelers web site.



What I'm wondering now is where I am going to put a collection of models. My old cameras are already hogging all the free space in the living room.



The paper models weigh almost nothing, so I suppose hanging them from the ceiling is one good option.
