Megazord Origami Gandhi
I am making a giant cardboard megazord costume, and realized that I fail harder than a Uwe Boll movie on crack. Then I realized that if I had some kind of origami net, I could just scale it up a bit and make it look half decent. Now I don't have too much experience with origami, but I'm sure that if I had something with scale to work with, things would turn out a lot better.

You mean papercraft, not origami... Origami is paperfolding, papercraft is making figures and models out of cut paper/cardstock, using glue to hold pieces together.

I don't have a Megazord for you, but here's a proof of concept:

They scaled up a gundam papercraft on a computer, printed out the sheets, and made the pieces using cardboard. They then posed the gundam on their school's float.

I plan on doing something similar to make an Evangelion Unit 01 Cosplay sometime next year using the 55+ page Papercraft of that, scaled up...

How do you scale something like that up using Photoshop or something else?

I've been trying to do a lifesize(compaired to me at 6'1") maginger z/Optimus Prime/Gundam for a while.

Well, I doubt there are any household printers capable of printing something of that magnitude to work with, so I was just going to figure out the proportions on my own and scale it up. Once I know the measurements, I'm just goint to sketch it on a big ass piece of cardboard. Only problem is I need the proportions to start with first. Thats why I came to you guys. Apparently no one has a net though...
