More than 10 years ago I showed you the papercrafts on Erick's Models but to be honest I think I didn't specifically told you he had a design tutorial too! 😨
I had already been looking into making and sharing my own papercrafts to give back to people like me that enjoyed the hobby. In 2002 I started (and still love to do sometimes) makig papercrafts by scanning pencil and paper templates, but I always wanted to make my favorite heroes from my favorite video games out of paper too but It seemed to difficult... 😕
I think for me it was Erick's Models just before 2005 that took the time to explain step by step the tools needed to extract videogame models (from Homeworld in this case) and then how to clean them up with Metasequoia and unfold them in Pepakura Designer to make papercraft models on the computer!
Erick (a.k.a. fructose1) has been busy with other things and unfortunately the site slowly went away, but in 2025 Erick (and the site) is Back, Baby! (read fructose1's forum post on the Paper Modelers forum! 😀)
