Although I don't watch anime as much anymore as I used to, One Piece is still one of my favourite series!
That's why one of the first papercraft models I made myself to share with others, was the "Going Merry" boat that Luffy and his Strawhat pirate crew use to sail the great seas: link ;o)
There are lots more One Piece fans of course, and one of them made a "repaint" of my papercraft "Going Merry"!
Although I don't speak Chinese, I think I found the person who (as far as I can tell now) created the repaint: chiohunpp
And what's more, the "Going Merry" inspired them to make a "Mini Merry" too, based on some of the solutions on the "Going Merry" and making new parts where needed (if I understand correctly, the paddle wheels can really turn! ;o)
Unfortunately, it's an old post, and the download links are dead now, and the blog owner won't respond to any of my messages... :o(
But because the models are based on my own "Going Merry" and I think other papercrafters and One Piece fans should be able to enjoy them for free like they were intended, I hope it's alright with them that I've provided a download mirror for the files here.
Have fun building! ;o)
