Paper modelling.

Here is a simple model of the Antoinette pioneer aeroplane made from ordinary inkjet paper,if you search the net you will find thousands of downloadable paper models to build,there are cars,tanks,aeroplanes,ships etc etc all for the taking.
The Antoinette was scaled up from a small three view drawing and the only non paper in her is the balsa wing spar and a toothpick for the propeller.
Use UHU adhesive to stick the parts together and cut them out with a pair of nail scissors,to me small and simple is beautiful and lots of fun !
This one will glide across the room beautifully after a bit of careful trimming.
Use cotton thread for rigging on biplanes locked into place with a tiny bit of thinned PVA glue,paint the models with artists acrylic paints applied very thinly.
