george stein Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Complete cardstock novice, so I wanted to download the three-part series on working with Scalescenes written by Chubbers. Have the links been "altered" as those given in forum postings don't seem to connect. Would someone please send working links (or the articles) to profgjstein@gmail.com Thank you.

Chubber Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Hullo chaps and chapesses, Had another e-mail/pm re these links, I've re-researched them, e-mailed them to my wife's 'pooter and they open there so hopefully these will help. I don't know why they should change, there are some strange things happen in Pooter Land....not the least of which is 'er 'pooter which now runs 'Windows 8'........what a performance!!!!

Brass0four Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Very helpful indeed. I tend to be a bit lax regarding hard corners and it shows. They are very useful articles. I trust you are being well paid. What I love about card modelling - going back to Micromodels - is the magic of turning 2D paper into 3D art. Nothing is so reasonably priced, printer ink aside. And that can be saved on repeats, by stencil-blanking and scanning, existing printed sheets. Not as sharp as the original but useful under certain circumstances never-the-less. Sorry, didn't mean to ramble on. Tony. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubber Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Thanks, Tony, and ramble on as long as you like. I love the challenge of paper card too! Recently I have finally managed an almost passable 'eyebrow' dormer window using watercolor paper, wetted and stretched several times. I recently posted a small low relief building in which I chose to 'blank' certain areas as the model is made with overlapping areas which will never see the light of day, so why cover 'em with ink?
