wiseguy

some time ago my brother sent me a link to [URL=http://www.yamaha-motor.co.jp/global/entertainment/papercraft/index.html]yamahas paper craft models[/URL] and boy, it's fun to build them. i just stumbled across a few other model sites that look real nice:

Nice, but where's paper model of shadow Battlecrab? :D

BTW It would be very nice if some bigger manufacturer would start to produce plastic model-kits.

*Starts building a yamaha*

first off, a colored one, for practice.

then, a non colored one, so I can make a BLUE one. :D Plus it will look more homemade if it shows I colored it. :D

Sanfam

Woohoo! I'm currently saving every single one of those files. :D

C_Mon

Damn that's cool! I'm really going to build those yamahas!!
Thanks for this nice thing wiseguy. :)

wiseguy

Biggles

I said the instructions, not the webpage. :)

wiseguy

i'll do the grissom translation tomorrow if i got time :)

(and do the other one if i'm very very bored ;) )

Biggles

I managed to mush my first attempt at a Homeworld ship. :( Time to try again.

Sanfam

Did you buy heavier paper?

Biggles

Yeah, I got 140gsm stuff. It works really well, it's just the right thickness.

A2597

I'm still working on copy paper...

LMAO. I'll buy better stuff after a bit more practice.

Biggles

I got mine from the uni art shop, where it's nice and cheap. :)

C_Mon

ooh right. Must remember to buy better paper tomorrow.

Whow...hold hte phone...

the campus selling things at a DISCOUNT?!?!?

Here its like, a 300+% markup if you buy things on campus, as opposed to the 100% at most stores....

a single zip DISC can cost upwards of $20....

only thing cheap are pencils, at 10 cents a peice for a regular #2....

(Never mind that 80 cents buys a dozen elsewhere...)

That's called "free" market economy. (capitalism)
