Paper model of Awesome?
« on: March 10, 2010, 09:12:53 PM »
Hi, don't know if it belongs here or rather in toasts, but I've got a little question.

Does anybody know a site where I can get print-out paper model of Awesome?
I did a search but it came up with more "awesome paper models" than "paper models of Awesome", even though I tried many keyword and operator combinations. I did a papercut Daishi and MadCat several years ago when I was around ten, hyped by mechwarrior and mechcommander games, now after playing MWLL I'd like to put my recent favorite 'mech - Awesome - on my shelf.

Thanks in advance!

Hey, this is neat! I was wondering where people got papercraft sets.
My gf for valentines day made a Timberwolf from MW4 holding a little heart and I was wondering where she got the design from. Now to build a tiny paper army...

Better yet, what system did your gf come from? Expecting many Jumpships to be launched should coordinates be provided.

@pht: Thanks for the link! I found an awesome Awesome with movable legs that is currently in the making (here), and a finished project with dead link, but even if it was available for download, I'd rather wait for the moving one - as this one just isn't all that great - model texture looks like 128x128px or less and if the model didn't have the signature shoulder fins, I wouldn't even say it's the Awesome. I'll be definitely checking when the first one is available for download.

@MatthewPryde: Pics or it didn't happen ;]

Speaking of papercraft, here, let your eyes roll out of your skulls:


As if that's not impressive enough, this one is fully articulable. Oh, and it's made out of KFC boxes!

So you wanna see my little valentine buddy, here it is



I thought it was one of the most creative thing's she's ever made for me. Using brads she made a couple of things rotate, like the torso and it is solid enough to stand up by itself due to the whole thing being made of a thin cardstock, and the heart is Origami of course. She even remembered the right faction. So thoughtful.
EDIT: Sorry for the fuzzy looking pics but all I got on me right now is my phone camera.

and don't I know it. Now if only I can figure out how to make more of those, never actually seen a completed papercraft project until this one.

Here's a page with PDF of this exact MadCat from your gf: http://www.nebulastation.net/timby.php . By the way, it's done by the same guy I mentioned  who's currently working on Awesome.

It's fairly easy to put together - each part has a number written on it and on the corresponding part, you just glue 1 to 2 to 3 and so on. Just check that PDF and you should instantly know what to do.
