Actualy there was a model done that looked just like that. Looked REALLY good but nobody ever finished it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' />

its nice and all... but that guy <b>really</b> needs to find himself a new hobby D:

BAshh · July 2004

i have autodesk inventor, is there a plugin for that that'll unwrap em? ^__^ i found a freeware program that'll make em too, but because of the triangle polys, it kinda rapes the model when you make the foldable design, it sucks because i'd like to have paper-prototypes of my models.

I wish 3D printers were cheaper, those things cost millions. As for this, somebody make a gorgie <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

actually only tens of thousands if you get the right brand, but yes i wish they were cheaper too, that'd be so awesome to have a map of cs and then the little figures, and be like 'omg i sniped this nub, here' <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /> i'm gonna own one once i get the money (meaning when i'm like 45)

And make it really big, and put motors and wheels in it, so you can ride the fatty around!

Jean_Luc_Picard · July 2004

Mm... what IS cardstock anyway?

I might just use like, thin cardboard or posterboard or something 0o'

or maybe plain paper... I have a photoprinter so <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

carstock is paper...

paper is rated by "pound"

computer "laserjet paper" is 20lb.... i hold in my hand 80lb paper.. which actually is textured to feel like bluejeans...

the higher the "pound" the more "stiff" the paper is... good luck finding some high pound paper that'll run smoothe through a laserjet...

...sometimes, i hate having a printer for a father...

Burncycle · July 2004

I don't have to buy a 3d printer, I can just suck up to sheena and maybe she'll hook me up <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

nah, probably not, lol

Talesin · July 2004

Which is why I use a straight-printer... I may have to toss some of these through on 120# press, or outright Bristol.

Hell, if you printed them on tracing paper, you could probably do one out of thin aluminum with a pair of tinsnips, a dremel, or a rotozip. Burnish, paint, make a few bits out of thin (or heat-softened thicker) plastic, and you've got a perfect Hallowe'en prop with the addition of a few glued-in washers or weights to add heft. Maybe toss in some foam latex as well to improve structural stability.

BAshh · July 2004

nice description del, you could have just said it's thick paper used for making cards on your computer ^__^

and that's the m41-a1 from aliens, the one you see the guy holding

BlackPanther · July 2004

I have made an M41A months ago.
Just needs a few tweaks and better anims.
