Thanks RF! Glad I could provide for some inspiration.:)

Hey speaking of Pepakura - does anybody know of any good tutorials for using Pepakura designer or converting to Pepakura?

True. As to animatronics probably more than likely at places like Disney or Universal, which all are run by computer and in the case of Disney since the mid 70's (they were really advanced for their time). The Orville did use practical effects as Seth McFarlane wanted models to show off to the...

Hey if Jan Rukr (Alien99) can design and build a 12 ft long Sulaco why not go B-I-G. Just saying.....

Thanks Z! I can't believe that nobody else has tackled this particular model - at least in paper. I've found one other version, which is the next one I'm going to assemble. This one really is a conceptual test build. The model builders for the Thunderbirds were really good and their detailed...

What scale are you using? Are the grids in CM? If so, this is really good work at that scale. BTW don't beat your self up too badly. This is a first build and often times when you make something the first time around and see it, you also see what can be improved. Maybe scale it up a little bit...

Side nacelles - These surprisingly were the toughest portion of the model. How to fold, which end pieces to use, and where they should go. This is the rear view of the side nacelle. The yellow piece goes on the end. Side nacelles - rear view - folded and glued in place. Side nacelles -...

Tail section with upper nacelle - Please note the vertical line - this is where the tail is going to be placed Tail section with upper nacelle - underside - This is marked this way due to already gluing the upper nacelle corners. Provides a reference for where to cut. Tail section with upper...

Thanks for sharing the link for the Blunderbirds!:) Yes this is a parody of Gerry Anderson's beloved Thunderbirds series with marionettes and really GREAT models. At the top I've included a link for the CGI inspired series. Thanks for stopping on by!:)

Great to see that you are tackling the X-universe. Played the Original X1 from start to finish. Beautiful game back in the day way far advanced of most games back then with a LOT of modding options. There are a LOT of ships there to choose from. Good to see someone doing something outside of...

Have more shots for later. I probably should put in the original template and have areas circled in red that are being worked on or talked about. It took a bit of time staring at the sample picture to visualize where everything should go. Thanks for stopping on by!:)

OK everyone sorry I haven't posted anything for a while been a bit busy with life, the universe etc. I'm started this thread off with the one page build at the top. Ok here we go -- There are no directions with this model - so for a lot of the pieces one has to just guess where and how they...

Amazing! Simply amazing!

Same here Rhaven!:)

It is a great site!:) Thanks for sharing Z!

I concur! Simply an amazing model. Love the design process along the way to seeing a master work being created.:)

Nice job and great effect!

I wonder how they did that? Neat effect of the Enterprise just floating and flying around.

Love the fix! I'm sure that Mr. Eiffel is grinning somewhere in heaven!

I concur!
