portholes and 1/200 ROMA in card

Post by **JIM BAUMANN** » Sat May 13, 2006 4:24 am

hi guys-

-I have been following the progress build of Christoph Suchys 1:200 card model of the ROMA ...

Christoph Suchy will be familiar to MW regulars as one of the premier exponents of card modelling

Anyhow .. back to the ROMA

here is a neat way of making the portholes--well-illustrated too!

In fact it may pay to view the entire thread--most of it has english captions...

Eventually upon completion doubtlessly we shall see the finished result herer at MW.com in his gallery page--but to see the step by step progress is very educational!!--a bit like the card equivelant of a Ron H/Bill W/ Vic on-line build!!

Hope you find it as interesting as I did
