    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Hi Altair, I migrated this thread to different paper model forum during the tumultuous times last year. I'm a little too lazy to update two forums at the same time so I abandoned this thread...until now. The model is complete and available for download at this link...

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Lost my hard drive right when I was trying to backup my work wall1 . Luckily I made periodic backups before and only lost a small amount of progress. I had to redo some work though which is mildly frustrating because its hard enough the first time :curse:. Taught me to mirror my data as often...

    Endoskeleton hand 1:1

    Wow! Your skill and detail is quite astounding. This is exactly how I imagined a paper terminator hand should look. I like how you didn't rely so much on textures but actually created all the ridges and lines using paper. Very crisp and flawless build. :thumb: I would love to see more...

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Small update. Handlebars and hand brake/clutch levers are just about done. I tried to spare no detail. Hopefully its buildable. -LD

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Hello All! :wave: Been a while but I found more time to spend on the model. I added the gas tank, detailed the front wheel, started on the front forks, and added the exhaust pipes. Lots more to do, but I think I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel (well at least to the...

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Well, thanks for the comment. This is my first bike so I'm sort of winging it as I go. I'm using Metasequoia which is the first 3d cad program I learned--so I'm kind of biased. I think I may try sketch-up for future models and see if its any easier than MS. -LD

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Haha, I am pretty amateur, so I can't guarantee it can scale up to 1:1. I think at that scale all my mistakes and artistic liberties would really be blown out of proportion. If you or someone wanted to build at that scale, I'd be REALLY interested to see the result. :mrgreen: I like Harleys...

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Sorry for lack of updates. Just too hard to find time to sit down and make progress. Luckily I found a little time this weekend and added the front-bottom cowl. I was a little dissatisfied with the frame when I compared it with some reference photos I have. So I made some modifications to...

    AV-98 Ingram Patrol Labor - paper-replika.com

    I love it. I too thought about designing it. I'm glad you did it because it is better than I could have ever done. It looks perfect. Terrific, great, and wonderful job! :thumb:

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Thanks CK. Its a good question. I think the MT-01 is about 15 inches in length. I'm sort of shooting for that kind of scale (so about 1:5 or a little larger). I think it would be a royal pain to try and build it to any smaller scale. So yeah, it will be pretty big (probably around 15-18...

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    After a long hiatus, I'm back on the project. I am trying to finish up the engine which I think deserves the most attention to detail so its taking me a while. There's going to be a heck of a lot of fins to glue. -LD

    USS Sulaco / Aliens

    I can't wait to see the textures. That is my favorite part of the Jan's papercraft models. I only wish I could be just 1/1000th as skilled. -LD

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Greeting all, No updates for a while becaues I took a timeout from this one to finish my Claudio's Bumblebee Robot build. I can't seem to concentrate on anything else until I finish it. Will return and finish this bike model afterwards. Stay tuned for updates. -LD

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    I've been working on the engine as of late. Definitely the hardest part of the whole bike I think. I'm trying to get a level of detail similar to the Yamaha MT-01, if I can. -LD

    Walz Hardcore Cycles Mille Miglia papermodel

    Fellow Papermodelers, I've begun design on a custom chopper papermodel as a tribute to the awesome work of Marcus Walz. If you've followed the TV show Biker Build-off on Discovery Channel, you may have seen the episode where Marcus Walz appeared and built one of his great works of art, the...

    Transformers G1 SCRAPPER

    Brilliant design :thumb:. If just the leg is this detailed and well designed, I can't wait to see the rest. This version of Devastator will truly be magnificent!!! I'm really glad you're taking this detailed approach to Devastator :mrgreen:. The more detail the better! -LD

    Transformers G1: Hot Rod Papermodel Statue

    Thanks everyone for all nice comments. I promised instructions for this model. Its not very complex but these instructions allow me to say that this model is completely done. The links here now point to a ZIP file with both parts and instructions. I will update the link on the first page...
