good work josip! whats the name of the last 3 ships? downloadeble? Hej, thanks! The black/red ship is Taiidan Missle Destroyer, you can find it at Enterprise-Es Paperstarships... But the one on the pictures is a new moduled version which I made for myself (Enterprise-Es model is a bit complicated to build)... The second one is Progenitor Dreadnought, it's mostly finished, though I have to review some flaps, and finish up the Assembly Instructions... The last one is Vaygr Mothership, with my own badge (did you notice that upside-down anarchy coat-of-arms in the front?  Both are still unavailable for download... Though I do have a question: on which paper do you print your models? Standard 80 grams or some thicker? Because if you plan to build a moduled model, it's best to use standard 80 grams paper or otherwise you'll have those ugly white lines... Just my observation. |

The textures of the defiant seem to be hand-made drown (at least, it's what it seems to me). Have you done these textures yourself?

Very nice models indeed. I'm guessing the Defiant is Ninjatoes model. Did you know Bill Perry has revised the design with improved graphics? There is also a Chaffe class shutt;e, Danube class Runabout, the Delta Flyer and Deep Space 9. All can be found at the folowing URL members.home.nl/saarloos/#Download%20modelsThe Vaygr flagship is really impressive. Hopefully up for download soon... hint! Will go well with the Vaygr Shipyard model (I think that was design by Ace) Is the Progenitor Dreadnaught the one that used to be posted at Ent E's main download site a while back? If so I have the pattern for it but haven't gotten around to building it yet. Keep up the good work. |

Paper question!
After a lot of experimenting I have settled on a 120g weight bright matt white coated paper sold by W H Smiths in the UK for £16.99/200 sheets.
It folds well with minimal scoring needed and is quite strong for small structures and modules. It does need reinforcing for larger structures.
The benefit I find with the paper is that it takes images that are as sharp as glossy photo paper and with good colour balance. I find the thicker card - 160g above - tend to soak up the ink and the images can be fuzzy.
For strengthening I use mainly thick artist card - the sort used for mounting art prints in frames - off cuts of thick corrugated card and balsa wood.

@ josip - i use 160gr white paper for my models and colour all cut edges with pencils. for a better look of the model i clue cardboard (comicbord) behind.
for very small pices i make a print out on 120gr cardboard. take care for the pint out in pepakura to set the default settings for the lines in the menue
Configuration-->Line Type Config--->Line Width for Development, set on 0,25!
if its posible to send me the pdo of the Vaygr Mothership?

If so I have the pattern for it but haven't gotten around to building it yet. The Defiant is indeed Ninjatoes model, I tried to acces his site at this URL: members.lycos.nl/ninjatoes/index.htmlwhere I downloaded Defiant but it is unavailable anymore... Thanks for the URL. Well Ace's Vaygr Shipyard needs a bit more work, and quite frankly the ship itself is really ugly, so no I won't try to build it... The V. mothership will be up when finished, I'll need to make more detail to it like antenneas, fighter/corvette or capital ship modules and so on... Oh and Tony don't try to build that old pattern for Progenitor Dreadnought, it's all messed up, no wonder it got off Ent-E's site  Thanks for suggestions about the type of paper to use for building... Just got some money so I plan to use it on paper... And ink... And beer ;D RE: Nox: Oh, yeah, if you try to unfold the dreadnought in Pepakura without making the modules first in metasequoia, it'll be very hard, take my word on it RE: Auris: Well, sorry but I do not have the pdo of mothership... It's in PDF, since I haven't bought Pepakura yet... |
