    Mecha Tricks: Compound Curves and Sturdy Feet

    I'm not real sure if this is the best forum, but since the model I'm working with is Sci-Fi, it seemed to fit. I came up with this idea a couple of weeks ago, and experimented with it to see how well it would work. While the method seems to work well, my implementation needs more practice...

    Macross MAC II Monster Build Along

    About the time the paint was drying on the Prowler's wheels, my oldest reminded me that I promised him we'd start his MAC II. JP was nice enough to send me his recolored version in tan, along with integrating a shark's teeth and eyes instead of the cutesie ones on the original. (It's the...

    Trilateral Union Prowler

    The kind gentleman who designed this model was nice enough to talk me through recoloring the Prowler to match my Kirchner (the original color scheme is gray). I finished it up yesterday. As you can see, I need practice on making wheels. I sanded down all the edges, and ended up repainting them...

    Greeblified Jotun

    I build one of these straight from the printer a few years ago, but lost it in a fire. When I decided to build it again, I tried to do it on the cheap and print it in black and white then color it. It looked like crap. Not just the color I chose, the whole idea looked like crap. I got...

    Kirchner Main Battle Tank

    I took a break from some of the bigger projects I've been finishing up, and decided to build this little tank. It's a "near future" job that, to me, looks like a direct descendant of the Abrams. I decided to build this straight from the printer, and I learned...I can't. I can't build anything...

    Macross MAC II Monster

    I decided to try to recolor this beast before I built one. After fiddling with the files in Photoshop, I decided to redraw the parts in Illustrator. The original files look like they were cut out of something else in Photoshop. I also thought about making a "vanilla" version, with no color...

    Stryker APC Anywhere?

    I'm looking for a good papercraft model of a Stryker APC. Color and scale don't really matter, since I can work with those. I've tried hunting the Internet and didn't find much, but modern armor really isn't my specialty.

    Need some help with Starcraft Models

    I've loved Starcraft ever since the first version came out eons ago. I have models of the Wraith, Siege Tank, Carrier, Vulture, and Battlecruiser, but I'm looking for ones of the Goliath and Banshee. I started a model of the Goliath a long time ago, but it's pretty crude and only vaguely...

    How do I apply skins in Pepakura?

    :cry:Okay, I dunno if this is the right place to ask or not, but the models I have in mind are all sci-fi models. I have Pepakura Designer 3. I have a model (Flarebaffled's Baneblade, for example). I have a skin. I can look at it and see how it would fit on the model. How do I apply the...
