Linebeck papercraft WIP 8


So far so good! Linebeck's head went together pretty well, although I do think I will make the final version a little bit bigger (also depending on how big the rest of him ends up being ;o)

There are a few things I'll change (edit some polygons, de-pixelate some textures, switch around some of the glueing tabs...)

I may do that now, or wait until I've test built the rest of him. ;o)

Stay tuned!

    just wondering, how do you go about de-pixelating textures?

  2. Thank you, I'm glad you like it so far!

    Textures usually end up being pixelated if they are very small, and they get stretched a lot to fit the scale of the paper model.

    So usually re-drawing them to a bigger size in Photoshop is all you need to do to fix it.

    Often it's easier to this on the final templates (with the pixelated textures as guide so you know where the texture goes on the unfolded parts) because then it doesn't have to be scaled anymore: the way you make it then, is the way it will be when printed. ;o)
