The mission: Scale Paper-Replika's Jedi ETA-2 up 157% and build with interior by Tomasz Bąk also available on Paper-Replika.com. Construct with opening clear canopy, and possibly hinged wing flaps. Create a recessed port for R2D2. Make sturdy enough to be played with by a 4 year old.
Finish by said (almost) 4 year old's 4th birthday on May 14th.
I had originally planned to scale up the Republic Attack Gunship, but seeing that it would be between 3 and 4 feet in length when properly scaled up, I realized that I had nowhere near enough time. So that will have to be longer term, maybe Christmas.
So I scaled the templates up, and had to rearrange them and modify pieces to fit on the 8.5x11" stock that I have. I'll be using 65# card stock with 1mm matte board or 3mm Sintra (a PVC foam board) depending on how much reinforcement is needed in each given area.
I will upload some pics as soon as I get them off the camera.
