The Golden Octave (2004–2012)

This specific timeframe (2004–2012) represents the peak of the “Polish School” of paper modeling. Why these years? In 2004, digital pre-press technology reached a price point where small Eastern European publishers could produce sheets with 1200+ DPI resolution and precise color registration. By 2012, the rise of hobbyist CNC cutting began to threaten the traditional “cut-and-score” purist. Modelers unique - MODELIK 2004-2012 1 of 2
