| Howdy Richard, Thanks for the comments on the Snark, I really enjoyed assembling it, I got to thinking a few minutes ago that this model was pretty close to the same size as my cardmodel of the Regulus II missile, i compared them and they are almost the exact same length  The regulus cardmodel was also designed by Eric Truax, the designer of the card Snark and many other models. As for the sidewinder model, I dont see why you couldnt build it out of plastic, the plastic sheeting will go through a printer just like regular paper iof you want to go that route, or, cut out the parts in card, then trace them to plastic and cut them out of it. Heck If i can make a polaris missile out of a paper towel tube and other "junk parts" (as seen in my Titan II thread photos), then the sidewinder ought to be a breeze. Besides, making a plastic model out of a cardmodel has been done many times before as well as vice versa. Anyway, thanks again for the comments on the snark. Have a good day, Greg |
