Prison City Model Club

Leavenworth, Kansas

Build a model--get captured!

 
 
 
    John Dickinson, our current vice president, is also one of the most unique and prolific builders in the club.  John's models start as cardboard soda and beer cases.  John pulls off the printed covering, and then uses the cardboard to build a variety of vehicles that he designs himself. 

    Many of his designs are inspired by a vehicle he sees in his research; he then starts to design, fold, and glue together his own kits without the benefit of putty if he makes a mistake. 

    John also builds nearly every day, and will come to a meeting with four or five new vehicles that he is building.  Enjoy these few images of his vehicles.
