Advance Wars Yellow Comet training video

I know, I know; I'm supposed to be working on TP hero Link... ;o)

And I am, but after already starting this Yellow Comet Artillery unit when I was making the instructions for Lulu's Moomba doll, I just had to finish it first:

• download parts and instructions for the Yellow Comet Artillery

Have fun building!

It's not a lion!! >:3

If you didn't know about my lame sense of humor yet, you do now. ;o)

But don't let that stop you from downloading and building Lulu's Moomba doll:

• download the parts + instructions

Have fun building!

Tomb Raider 1-3 T-Rexes

I finally figured out why Tomb Raiders 1 through 3 are still the bests in the series: they have T-Rexes!

And now you can make your own:

• download Tomb Raider 1-3 T-Rexes

Mmm... download...

Tomb Raider Chronicles Extreme Depth Suit, have fun building!

I just finished replaying "The Cistern"; Lara needs two Rusty Keys, two Silver Keys and one Gold Key to exit the level.

She should really learn how to pick a lock. Skills like that may come in handy when you're a Tomb Raider.

More importantly:

Orange Star wants YOU!

Here's the Advance Wars unit I was working on alongside of the Tomb Raider EDS, have fun building!

Tomb Raider III blank quad bike templates re-release

Maybe it's because I started my new Tomb Raider papercraft project, but I received several messages from people about the TR3 quad bike model I made earlier.

I released several versions of that one, including a blank one that you could print on coloured cardstock, or that you could colour yourself.

But therein lies the problem for the people that e-mailed me: they didn't know how to edit the PDF files on the computer, so I decided to release the blank quad bike as plain jpeg files, that everybody should be able to work with (but of course if you want to, you can also colour them after you printed them! ;o)

If you want to mix and match components with the coloured versions, make sure to print them at the same scale. The instructions stay the same of course, have fun building!

ZaL release

I *finally* finished ZaL, have fun building!

• download Twilight Princess Zora armor Link

The legend of Zelda: Cremia's wagon

Here's Cremia's wagon to go with the Romani Ranch mule I made recently. And before anybody asks: I glued the front of the wagon together a little differently from in the game. ;o)

• download Cremia's wagon papercraft model

Have fun building!

Romani Ranch mule

Despite all the SLMs (smooth look models) that I've been making (and working on... ;o) recently, I absolutely love the polygonal look of "older" computer games, like the classic Tomb Raiders and the N64 Zeldas.

So I plan to make *lots* more paper models from those games, starting with this Zelda mule from Majora's Mask!

Have fun building!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer papercraft model

What can I say? I got distracted. ;o)

Paper Buffy stands about 28 cm tall (here's a picture of it with a leather clad, cigar smoking monkey for size comparison) and you can the parts and instructions to build it yourself (Buffy, not the monkey) from here:

• download Buffy Summers papercraft model

Have fun building!

Advance Wars Black Hole MD Tank

The Orange Star Rocket unit is an old model, the Black Hole MD Tank is a new one. Seeing this rare footage, it's no wonder Black Hole was able to take over Macro Land so quickly...

• download the Black Hole MD Tank

Have fun building!

Final Fantasy VII / Kingdom Hearts Cloud Strife papercraft model release

Whew, finally finished:

• download FF7/KH Cloud Strife papercraft model

Have fun building!

New Kurt (not Russell) papercraft model

The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. I'm still here. ;o)

There weren't too many updates on my Cloud model the last two weeks, because I've been busy with everyday's stuff and well... test building Kurt.

I already did all the work on the 3D model over a year ago, before the "Great Computer Failure" of january 2008... So I was pretty happy I found it again. ;o)

In a year's time, one gets new ideas on how to make paper models, so I tweaked the 3D model a little more, but not much. I spent the first week secretly test building the head, body and legs, and last week I basically did one arm a night. ;o)

I'm very happy with how it turned out, it is a lot more balanced than it looks, and it's not insanely big (just 25 cm or so) and yet the parts themselves are of a good size to handle (except the four fangs, they're quite small).

The biggest drawback I guess, is that it has a whopping 155 parts: but what'd you expect with 6 arms with 11 parts each? ;o)

Have fun building!

• download Kingdom Hearts Kurt Zisa papercraft model

Papercraft Ganondorf release

I had so much fun building building it that I just couldn't stop, so I managed to complete it this week still.

In the end it took me a lot longer to make than I anticipated at first, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. So here it is (in the Zelda section of course ;o)

• Ganondorf papercraft model

Have fun building!

Black Hole & Yellow Comet Stealth Fighters

Sorry to keep you guys waiting:

• download Black Hole & Yellow Comet Stealths

The site seems a bit slow today, I'm not sure what's up with that. Maybe my ISP is suffering from the Y2009 bug. Just try reloading and/or emptying your cache, it's still there. ;o)

Have fun building!

Green Earth & Blue Moon Stealth Fighters

So here are the green and blue ones:

• download Green Earth & Blue Moon Stealths

Yellow and black (grey) to follow of course, as soon as I build them myself.

Have fun building!

Advance Wars Dual Strike Stealth Fighter

It is ironic that Advance Wars Dual Strike's most powerful jet Fighter is modeled after the F-117A Nighthawk, because in real life, it is probably the worst jet fighter out there.

But there's no shame in that of course, for a bomber. ;o)

I already coloured the other armies, but I still have to copy/paste the parts to the templates. I'll build those as well, so I can take pictures of them for my website. I'm gonna be away most of the day but they're quite easy to build, so with any luck I can release them tomorrow.

And no, I haven't forgotten about Ganondorf. ;o)

For now, have fun building the Orange Star Stealth:

Advance Wars papercraft hits the water!

Not literally of course: so don't go throwing your Green Earth Cruiser in the water!

It's one of those little side projects again that I work on when I can't use the computer (which is a lot more often than I was hoping), have fun building!

• download Advance Wars Green Earth Cruiser

Majora's Mask Clock Town Schauzer

It's that dog, that bugs Link when he first enters Clock Town as a Deku Scrub in Majora's Mask. ;o)

It's scaled and available in lined and unlined versions to match my young Link papercraft model.

Have fun building!
