Will have to give this a try! Thank you for sharing :)

Nice job! I always like to see what people start with. This is a great place to come and learn, welcome aboard :)

@ Revell-Fan, D'oh! It never occurred to me not to crease, I guess I'm stuck with it, at least for the next row (the first few pieces are done). I'm doing the strips of paper behind the pieces instead of flaps; hopefully correctly. I do appreciate any and all tips you care to share :) Thanks for...

You're right about the talent that abounds on this site, it's inspiring! And impossible to acknowledge everyone :) (and I have attempted UHU02's time machine, no pics though, lol) You impressed me by jumping in with both feet (tabs? who needs 'em) and doing such a great job on your early...

@ Andy, I've sent you a pm with the link, as I'm never sure which links are okay for posting. and @ Rogerio, that is praise indeed, coming from someone as talented as yourself :)

As this is my first build thread, I may be leaving out stuff. If there is anything you want to know, just ask and I'll do my best to reply asap.

Next row on the dome...

These next images are to give an idea of scale. The teeny tiny R2 will continue throughout the build.

Well, I've started building R2-D2. I'm not sure how life size it will be, I only had letter sized paper on hand and scaled the printing to fit. I should add the caveat that this build (and therefore thread) may take a while. I'm the mom of an 11 year old with Autism and my time is not always my...

Wow! just Wow! That is all kinds of cool, well done!

76 sheets of paper, lol. It's gonna take a while to print. I'll post pictures as soon as I can...

Oh, and if an admin could let me know if I can/should post the link, I'd appreciate it. (I'm still not entirely clear on which links are post-able, lol. Evidence of my limited tech abilities, I'm afraid)

Has anyone built the life size R2-D2? (by DeviantART member Adisko. I found the link on Tektonten) and if yes, how was it? It looks straight forward enough, but any tips are useful. I'm thinking of giving it a go (and yes, I will post the build when I get to it, lol. Just don't expect speedy...

Fingers crossed they answer! They would make some excellent models

Nice work! I tried this one as one of the first models I built. Made a mess of it, lol. But I did learn a lot. You have just made me think that should try it again.

Excellent model! Gonna give this a go :)

Very cool! Another one to watch :)

Brilliant! (and a much needed giggle :) )

Excellent! (and now another model to add to the list, lol)

Eesh, hope you're okay. Take it easy on the modeling...
