I voted for it anyway.

You're early. (Birthday is on the 26th so I got 22 more days). Also how does one make a paper model plane? Ive made paper airplanes but they weren't models. At least, not the ones I made

That happens to be my brother's birthday as well.

Nathan,
Try PaperModelers.com. I'm also a member of that forum. It's an art form that I'm trying to master.

I would most likely not do well at all, especially since I suck with paper. But I can give it a try.

If you decide to join the forum there, you will find that they are just as friendly as we are here. If you do decide to try it, start with something simple. Let me know if you do and I will help you as much as I can with my limited skill.

I am Leonidas, real name is Nathan. I absolutely love modeling primarily ground vehicles from WWII, although I have started building planes. I also love history, and technical stuff. (I collect technical manuals, that's actually how I found this site). I am also 16 although this month I will be turning 17.

A warm welcome to you, dear Nathan, from Iran. Happy birthday to you and happy to have you here.
Best wishes for you, and I hope you enjoy your time in this awesome Forum.

No. Origami is a paper art form but not in the manner of card stock [ paper] modeling. I will have to post photos so that you can see what I'm talking about.

Ok, so not origami. I would still consider it a form of paper art however,

A paper art .. to a certain extent you are right. But you have to admit the paper modelling has nothing in common with the origami.
