Model Builder Software takes cardstock modeling to the next level. The program allows you to build hundreds of realistic model structures for your layout using matte photo paper or cardstock.  scalemodelbuildings.co now has available, with most plan packages, importable WMF templates to allow you to easily create any of our structure plans using the Model Builder software.

Model Builder comes with various resources to help you get started. Our tutorial is not intended to replace these resources, but rather to help you get started in integrating your scalemodelbuildings.co project with your Model Builder software.
If you have the Model Builder program and would like to try our MB template files click on the MB request link included in the email that follows your scale plan purchase, or click here to access the request form.

Where impractical for cardstock construction some plans will not include these templates.  See catalog pages for details.

When you receive your scalemodelbuildings.co Plan Package you should create a new folder in which to store the files.  Remember that the license agreement allows you to create multiple copies for your own use, (not to share or distribute), so you may want to try out various versions of each plan. You may want to build both a wood or styrene structure as well as a Model Builder version.

The Links & Tips page lists suppliers of cardstock, foam board, and other modeling supplies.

Once you complete your project in Model Builder, and print it out, you can refer to the Cardstock Modeling Guide included with your Plan Package for help in assembling it.

Model Builder templates are available for most scalemodelbuildings.co plan packages. Follow the link on the file download page after placing your order with us. Your MB template files will be sent by email.
