This is it, no more models from me this year. See you in 2010!
Have fun building! (and careful with the fireworks, you need your fingers for papercrafting!)

Advance Wars Black Hole Rockets & Missiles
Although in the first Advance Wars, the Black Hole army was just an evil clone of Orange Star's forces, in Advance Wars 2 the units had their own distinctive look.
Most Black Hole units in Advance Wars 2 have kind of a "robot-army" look, and even the simple design of the Rocket and Missile units have something mysterious about them...
Anyway, if you want to build your own (out of paper that is...) then get the parts and instructions to do so from my papercraft webpage:
Have fun building, and happy holidays to you and your family!

It's that time again...!
...instructions time!
The Black Hole Rocket and Missile units are for a big part exactly the same, so I decided to make both of them at once.
They'll be up after I've made the instructions, so stay tuned!

Teeny-tiny Link by Amanda
While I'm finishing up the instructions for HoL, Amanda (whom you probably know better as "randomzeldafan") just couldn't wait and went ahead and printed the teeny-tiny preview version that I posted earlier.
As you can see, at just the size of a finger, some parts like the boots and arms just proved *too* small to build, and she had to replace the head with a bead, but even with the improvisations she had to make, you can still easily recognize that it's Link!
Must be the green outfit and Master Sword and Hylian Shield... ;o)
It's amazing how Amanda managed to build these tiny parts, but if you'd rather wait for the regular sized version, I should have it ready in a couple of days!
Stay tuned!

And now, for something completely different...!
Yeah, I know...
Don't worry though, I'm making good progress on HoL's final build and instructions, and he'll be ready for release by next weekend.
But I didn't think it would be very interesting to show almost the same pictures as during the test build again, so instead here's a sneak preview of a new side project that I also started.
Stay tuned!

Final build
So, these should be the final templates with all the fixes and finishing touches in Pepakura Designer and Photoshop.
As much as I would love to see a teeny-tiny Hero outfit Link, if you'd rather wait for the regular sized version, it will be released as soon as I'm done making instructions. ;o)
Stay tuned!

Sword and shield
Although usually the Hylian Shield is an upgrade from the Wooden Shield as normally it's much stronger and can't catch on fire, that is not true for the paper version, so don't think about trying it out...
The Master Sword has some small parts obviously, but I think they're worth it. All in all it went together pretty easily, but I think I will make the blade just a bit longer and give it a pointier tip.
Stay tuned!
