Phanto

If you could possibly do this for me, I would be immensely grateful. However, I understand if you do not have enough time, since you have a long list of other projects you wish to fulfill. If you want to contact me, my e-mail address is phantobro @gmail.com

Thank you for your time.

This is also the thread to post other information about branching out into the online community.

It's supposed to be a pumpkin. Didn't quite fold right, and it doesn't have a face, top or bottom. I Just wanted to get something in for the contest. I feel good now about my first ever pre-designed papercraft!

I've got a notebook with a few models sketched, but I'm probably never going to get around to actually building the templates. I've got a Grim Reaper inspired by Death from The Hogfather, a "Thug", and a Rhino sort of patterned after the Rommy Sloth series. I've also got a cubee design waiting to be traced in Illustrator, but once again…Too damned lazy.

Its sorta what inspired me…plus, for some reason my combination of sketchup, pepakura, and fail leads me to lose vertexes or other weird shit.

Considering writing a program to help draw out, texture, and print papercraft designed this way, IF I get less lazy (havent gotten 20% done with tutorials yet) and bother looking up the specifics of GUI's and all that fun stuff.

What do y'all think?

bah.

I'll try and get on PSN, I can help with bunker ;D

Original:

The whole kit (a .rar), with .pdos and .pdfs (with and without lines) for each build is available for download here:

Probably going to work on my own version of the regular chaos emeralds next.

NOT DEAD.

Conveniently enough, my psn name is Daijitsu.

go figure.

…hooray webcam screenshots >_>

I may need a bit more than paper to pull that one off correctly, though.

also, I'd love a kratos/heavenly sword code as well, but NHB called it first ;D

On a not PC related note, the game is great, and does anyone have an extra Kratos Code? I really want one. :(

Happy Halloween and enjoy your last minute pumpkin carving!

crap, I dont remember what I was gonna do…

EDIT-
By the way, here's the fix:
http://community.wikidot.com/howto:forums-fixing-them#toc6

When it gives you the "page does not exist (yet)" bit, click the "Create Page" link, find the relevant section in the help page above (in this case forum:thread was the problem), copy the module/do not touch text from the help page and paste into the content box of the page you're creating, rename the title to match what's listed on the fix page (in this case "Forum Thread") and save. Once it saves it will give you an "invalid thread" or "invalid page" message, but you should be able to go back and access forum threads without a problem.

This means someone tried to delete a thread instead of moving it to a hidden category made for holding "deleted" stuff, which is apparently the preferred method of getting rid of unwanted forum stuff. Deleting an individual post won't cause problems, but deleting anything above that in the hierarchy will screw things up. You can still delete things (so that they're gone forever and ever) instead of just moving them without doing permanent damage to the forum, but you'll have to recreate the forum:thread or forum:category or whatever relevant page every time after you're finished if you want it to work.

So I guess it's up to daijitsu and/or Dalndox to decide which one we're going to use, since I think you need admin access to use the hidden category method, but any mod can delete/recreate the pages. *shrugs*

Dai said he did, so I'm making this thread to see if once its created we can see the darn thing.

(Just to let you know, we're using the wiki syntax, so the "Forum" code, or BBCode, that ImageShack provides won't work here. You still have the option of embedding a URL in an image, and you can also choose if you want the image's URL to open in a new window when clicked. I've edited your post to show both examples of how a URL can be embedded in a picture. To see the format I used just click the "+ options" button and click "edit." Consult http://www.wikidot.com/doc:wiki-syntax#toc23 for image linking and formatting instructions. Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks! ~FreebooterFox)

That's some good stuff man.

IF, however I have a piece with a long joint, I go ahead and use the Aleene's for the end seals, and then fill the space with the loctite. This helps me get it lined up correctly, and the superglue gives me a good tight bond.

If you'd like, you could possibly print out textures to use, such as wallpapers and carpets, then just glue them onto your much sturdier wooden walls.

but THIS is probably the link the rest of you want.

The downloadable rar file has the gif and the PDF in it.

What you say fills me with foreboding. I'm really not looking for something as badass as a balsa model. I think what I'm after is just a build-a-box with some texturing and a few gimmicks to make it pretty. I want something which can exist virtually as well as physically, so that's why I'd rather do paper instead of a "real" model. It'll probably go through several revisions and rebuilds before we're happy. I'm hesitant to work in something so permanent just yet.

I'll look at the stores around here - Michael's, A. C. Moore, and Jo-Ann's are my local ones - and see what they have to offer. I'm glad you brought up scale relative to dollhouse fixtures. Whether I go paper or "real", that's still probably the place to start.

Before the computer-based 3d section of the industry took it's hold, there were two ways of showing off a design- paying a sketch artist an absurd amount of money to draw a 2-point perspective of your house, or to gain a basic knowhow of how to build model houses.

I'm going to suggest you look into how they made these small houses. It was done mainly using balsa wood, but some people figured out their own unique ways. If you go to your local hobby store, there's actually a gigantic section of supplies and pre-made scale models. Just ask where the doll-house section is, I'm sure they've got an extensive selection. You'll find everything from couches to doors to window frames… Hell, at my store there's a selection of different door hinges.

All you really need to do is figure out what scale most of these bits and pieces are at, then build your model house at that same scale. If you need help, an architect's tri-sided ruler provides a few mainstream scale conversions to use.

Good luck, and if you need any more help feel free to ask!
