Stolen off NASIOC

Paper Craft

they have various paper models that you can make at home by just printing out the pdf..........the newer ones are very detailed and look very hard......I'm going to try one.

sick...i have to do this..

***houseofsuffering*** · 04-23-2008, 08:26 AM

From what I hear, 200 gram paper is the one to use..........and that would be really close to 110lb paper.

Staples.com®. that was easy®.

**** this is nice. weekend project.

**tyler_sti** · 04-23-2008, 04:35 PM

Yuup. Paper is more expensive than I thought. All get started when I have a couple extra bucks laying around. It's 39cents a sheet, with 16 sheets tottal. Plus no printer at home. So it will cost me about 20 bucks with glue. Worth every penny. Brings me back to my gundam and lego days, WOOT!

Real Deal · 04-23-2008, 04:42 PM

holy sheet!

i thought model cars made out of plastic were hard
if anybody else tries this, post your results

***houseofsuffering*** · 04-23-2008, 07:22 PM

I'm going to try as soon as I can gather.......110lb glossy paper,exacto knife,gel super glue and Time.

I'll post pictures of the impending failure. LOL

At first I was like "awesome I can kill a weekend on that project" Then I looked at it and realized I would never have the patience for it. You'd be cutting for about 15 hours straight.....
