    R2-D2: 12” Action Figure Size

    I built some rollers for the bottom of his feet which work alright on rubbery surfaces. All three legs are poseable and the middle one is retractable.

    R2-D2: 12” Action Figure Size

    Having had a couple of builds under my belt I decided to go all out when I found a decent sized R2-D2 papercraft template. I’ve always focused on building toys, not models, since my childhood so I did quite a bit of greebling on this. The end build turned out to be about the size of the original...

    The Millennium Falcon

    This was my second modern day papercraft build. I splurged on this one and got the template printed at a professional printer (Staples here in Canada) and I was pleased with the resulting clarity on the model. There was a bit of greebling on this model but not too much. I made the laser turrets...

    AT-AT: My First Downloaded Build

    My first foray into Papercrafting (as we know it today and not the scratch builds I did as a kid) was a build of the AT-AT from The Empire Strikes Back. This was a very common download which I printed on my own ink-jet printer on card stock. I soon learned that I would need to visit a...

    Hi everyone. My name is Les and I’m a papercraftaholic. “Hi Les”. I’ve been building paper models ever since I was about 7 in the 1970s when my Dad brought home some cardboard lining from his meat shop at the grocery store he worked at. After cutting the parts off the cardboard with meat stains...
