Stříhám papír na kusy a lepím je dohromady.
I cut paper to pieces and paste them together.

I'm making scale models out of (mostly) paper and post (mostly) daily pics.

Built a shovel. The handle is made from real wood (from a toothpick sanded to the right diameter), the blade is from paper shaped by the toothpick and painted with a metallic pain. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels

I've started building a couple of tools that are normally carried on the platform. Started with a small ladder made out of copper wire and paper footrests. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels
The completed ladder on my cutting mat.

Added canisters to their place on the platform. In the finished model, they are protected by a cover and they are barely visible. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels
The canisters are now hidden under the cover. The cover viewed from a different angle. The canisters in their storage area on the platform, before putting in the cover.

Built doors and hinges for the storage compartments. At this stage, I've built them but I'll wait with attaching them until the model is almost complete to avoid breaking them. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels

I'm sorry, no update today. Too much work to do, too little time otherwise 🥵 I hope things get better next week.

Attached the wheels to the model. Now it's no longer looking like a corgi version of a truck 😄 #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels

I have a dilemma: participate in #italiaGB (and order a new kit) or stay true to #buildthestash and keep not buying any kits this year? So far, the latter is winning, in part because I'm lazy and it feels silly to order a €1.5 kit and pay €10 for shipping 😅

The spare wheel at its spot on the platform. For now, it's just a dry run. To avoid any accidents, I'll glue it at the end when completing the model. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels

I started building the first wheel. This one will be the spare tyre resting between the lockers on the platform. I'm keeping the round shape by winding a paper strip around the inner part of the wheel. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels
