good papercraft for a newbie Anonymous
Okay, I have a good printer, a nice sharp pair of scissors, a whole ream of paper and some good folding skills.

So, /po/ ...what are some good papercrafts for me to start out with?

Also, I am very open to suggestion.

Pic is relevant to my interests, but I do not have THAT much time on my hands >.<

I'ld look for some simple buildings to try it out on before going for anything too fiddly. The more simple boxes there are, the better when you start.
You really do have to get a feel for working with flimsy ass paper.

haha, easy there billy! firstly, starting something like in that picture- it's gonna take a long time to get anywhere at best. otherwise you'll just stop doing it alltogether.

check the sticky, do domo-kun and some other simple ones. as anonymous said, get a feel for this stuff first, then go onto MGS rex or something.

secondly, for more technical stuff you're gonna need more than scissors and good folding skills. infact when i did rex i didn't use scissors at all. get a nice surgical knife (exact-o-knife or whatever the yanks call them) and some decent glue. rubber glue is probably the most suitable.

Why does everybody think those big models will be very difficult to build? They're not: my Eva Unit 00 was one of the easiest models I ever built. BECAUSE they're so big, the individual parts are big as well, so you can handle them very easily. It's usually the small models that are hard to make.

never said it was difficult. time consuming and tedious, yes.

It's true that some big models can be easy but it's all about count of details in the model you are building that makes it hard. I self builted one about 12cm tall gundam model in last weekend and evry hard part to built was on small details not on the model it self
