Talking about MC, is it the same as the glue-all glue (which is white in color) that we usually use in sticking wood model?

The glue-all glue that I am talking about is the "Glue-all" glue in

No, MC isn't the same as your regular white glue that you're refering to. Though some people do use white glue for backcoating and stiffening, it doesn't seem to be most people preference (if they can find MC anyway).

There's a thread here on MC:

And here's one on paper in general:

mabye you should start with something simpler; if this fold is giving you trouble, then the rest of the model will be hellish for you. However, you asked for help, so I am going to give you some

this is a simple double reverse fold. Since there are not very many things that can go wrong, with this step, the fact that you got it to look like step 39 tells me that you got it right. 40 is, of course, an open sink, and for 41, make sure that you fold two layers to the left, rather than one or three. Here are some pdiagrams

I have to agree with eyesonfire, the pictures aren't there.

can someone help me with step 100? how do I flatten the top layer(my forefinger pointing at)? it seems locked. do i need to open and flatten the top triangle to left and right side?

I think so... I'm going off of memory(and its pretty bad), so I could be wrong.

Adam · Post by **Adam** » February 12th, 2009, 3:53 pm

Chixiao, I think you just have to fold it to the left or to the right. I don't recall squash folding that flap myself when I folded this model.

EDIT: Sorry, I misread your post. I though you were talking about the bottom layer. Yes, you should squash fold the top layer.

Well, I fixed them on my flickr, so go ahead and view them! but they still won't appear here. I changed the pics to private because they cluttered up my flickr, and that is why they were not appearing earlier.... ...I thought that you would still be able to see them

my apologies

Well, head to my flickr to see them! enjoy!

@chixiao
yes exactly! you need to squash fold the flap on top of it. .
