Papercraft!

dt451

Hi all!

I'm sort of into making paper models recently. Maybe its a work affection. Im an Architecture student, so i often make models of my building designs. I also found some anime related papercraft out there on the web and would like to create some of my own aswell. I'm developing my skills with the Pepakura Designer software, wich is an application to unfold 3D models, and am looking for someone with 3d modeling skills, or finished models of some famous anime aircraft, or mobile suits. ( My own modeling skill are not too godd when it comes to dealing with other than buildings)

this isn't like origami or what you are describing but it's kinda neat.. Flying Pig

All we got over here is the paper bridge project, and that one with toothpicks and eggs.

I flunked both projects, that's when I decided civil engineering is not for me.

If you are from hungary, then you should know ABC magazine. There were pretty nice paper models, but I don't think any of them was anime related :P
But if you really want, go for ABC.

I didn't know about that one. But I'm sure there were no anime related stuff. maybe I ought to make some. :P If I find something, or manage to develop my own model, I'll post it on this forum as well. Maybe someone will find it usefull. I'm also thinking about setting up a website on the toppic.

I was scavenging on the web and found some decent 3d models from Ful Metal Panic, wich is one of my favourite shows. Im working on turning them into paper models at the moment. I will be posting updates on the development. Maybe someone would like to help, or actually build one.

Ok! I'm back... Had a few difficulties recently. Working on a papercraft Arbalest at the moment. I'm at the 3D modelling phase, but maybe in a few weeks I will manage to make some decent cutouts for the bigger parts.
