Translucency adds a nice twist to this well known model. I cutted away all superfluous layers, working with a strangely shaped hexagon.
Was way harder to fold with glassine, because one can't score that thin paper for the diagonal folds - luckily the resulting imprecision is not so obvious in the final model.
One of many fuse boxes on the dozens of barracks buildings at the abandoned Army Air Corps base in Wendover, Utah. This was the base where many B-17 crews were trained and notably where the crews of the Enola Gay and Bockscar B-29 bombers that carried the atomic bomb to Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the support B-29's.
I first visited this old Army Air Corps base in Wendover, Utah back in June of 2007 and recently returned for more exploration. In the years between visits much has happened by way of preserving and even restoring this fascinating piece of history.

To use this method of not cutting the paper to shape, but only cut three sides and later frame it, was on my mind since I saw the pictures in the book. Having a frame ready where I painted the background black already, made the decision to tackle this an easy one, especially since folding is so fast. Like the result even though it provides possiblities for improvement: make the spiral larger and centre it better.
Another series with that beautiful model within a sparkle dress.
Go thru the albums if you want to see more of her.
