www.swillustrators.co.uk  This one is a bit 'off topic' but shows work which I do, when not designing paper models. My work appears under the name 'Willy Bullock' which I use for published work, designing and illustrating 'pop-up' books. If you think that designing card models is tricky, you should try doing pop-ups!
