    Louie - Silent Running

    Thanks! I was body-boarding around the internet, and I saw that UHU02 also did a more detailed model of Dewey. Amazing detail!!! I might try this in the future. But, am pleased with how this one turned out.

    Louie - Silent Running

    Haha! Yeah, poor guy. This part of the movie reminded me of a short comic by Joel Priddy, "Long Slow Flight of the Ashbot" It's about a janitor robot who gets sucked out into space and floats through space for millions of years. Anyway...Final shots! Now, I move onto "Gunwalker"

    How to pull 3d models?

    Sadly, Zathros is right. I did spend a lot of time learning Meta 2, and recently upgraded to 4. Now, I'm looking into Rhino. I think there is greater potential learning a program that has much more versatility. For me, though, Meta was a good jump-off point. @zathros - How well does Rhino work...

    How to pull 3d models?

    That's a great tutorial! I wish it had been around when I started messing with Pepa. My experience was mostly trial and error. When it comes to the process (and this is something I'm still trying to figure out), the best models are also some of the most simple designs. It all comes down to...

    How to pull 3d models?

    Haha! That's what I've learned about meta-sequoias. @generaldiaz - Metasequoia is an entry level 3d modelling program. It's like the MS paint of modelling. And I can say, that it is super compatible with Pepakura. There ia a free version and licensed version. I have a licensed version because I...

    Louie - Silent Running

    I was shown a nice collection of card models (thanks Zathros). While looking up instructions for the "Gunwalker" model here on the forum I came across a build of Huey, Duey and Louie. I then learned that these models came from the movie Silent Running. After watching the movie, I decided to...

    Bring on the Kaiju's!

    It's one thing to see the renders of a model, but, to see the actual build...So much better! Pacific Rim is one of my all time favorite movies. I cant wait to see the rest of the build progress. Revell-Fan - What weight do you build with?

    A Recent Build of Neon Neuron

    Hello All, Here is a build of a robot character I created, then commissioned Dimensional Paper to engineer for me. I'm planning on releasing it on my website as a free download, but only after I finish adding the details. As you can see it's very plain right now. I also plan on fitting it with a...

    My first Anime figure

    I recently took the poll about painted edges. I haven't tried hiding edges myself, although I am planning on doing it with future models. Any plans on coloring the edges? I'm heading over to the TIPS, TUTORIALS AND TOOLS Section right now to look into what Zathros is saying.

    Metasquoia 4

    That would be great! It it concerns Meta4, this might be the first of it's kind. I can't find anything on the net about version 4; tutorial or help wise.

    Thanks, everyone! I would post some of the things I've built, but, I don't think they're on the same technical skill level as what I see here.

    Metasquoia 4

    Importing it back s a single object is a major plus! I spend a lot of time joining vertices at points where two objects meet. I haven't had 100% success with "join closed vertices" either. The height vs. ratio doesn't seem to big a problem. "Scale" seems to be one of the things that still...

    Metasquoia 4

    Yes, I use Pepakura. I have never thought of exporting back into meta. I'll give that a try. I'm working on a Gum model, from JSFR; and after I simplify it, I take into Blender to add an armature so I can change the pose. When I bring it back to Meta, the the uv info changes, too. I know this...

    Metasquoia 4

    I already purchased Meta4. It's very different from 3. I was used to using power unwrap, now I'm trying to figure out how to use anguwrap. I was hoping someone had knowledge about this feature, as I can't find any tutorials online for it yet. The main problem I'm having is when I pose a model or...

    My first Anime figure

    Very nice! I'm working my way up to this level of build. I'm working on a Chibi Miku model at the moment. But it's mostly block shapes, except for the head.

    Elsa (Frozen)

    That is a very clean build! I've been wanting to build this one for sometime for my kids. How long did it take?

    Hey folks! My name is Michael. I like Papercrafts, Cardmodels and paper arts. I have an interest in building the creations of other artists, and creating some of my own models. Although, not on the level as most designers here. I'm looking at upping my design skills and model complexity. I Like...

    Metasquoia 4

    Has anybody had any experience with Metasequoia 4? Specifically, the Anguwrap.
