This is amazing work!!
If I remember correctly, there were templates on VK a long time ago that were very detailed. However, not quite as good as the ones you have posted.
Looking forward to seeing some painted pictures!!
Cheers!

I'm creating my own 3d models and templates for my titans and suites, so I can make them as detailed as possible

I love this thread. I made two companies of my armored Regiment this way and built a Super-Heavy Baneblade.
Keep up the amazing work!

@Bhaad I did notice a titan foot in one of your gallery images, and was curious to know what program are you using to draft and get the renderings?
Thanks in advance!

Really impressive work. I've dabbled in paper models over the years, but your stuff is a cut above for sure!
Do you use a Cricut or similar device to cut the card for your models?

These are very impressive paper builds. I'm also curious what software/tools you use to cut these pieces.

Modelling knife, cutting mat, metallic ruler and a needle for making strait bends easier. As im my video in my previous answer.

Amazing work and paintjob, too! Im really curious about the durability of painted paper/cardstock. I assume you gave those a few layers of varnish, right?

Very nice work. It's always a pleasure to see well done papercraft.
If you don't mind me asking, what sort of paper are you using? 250 gsm? It looks like there is a much heavier paper too, chipboard? Are you using any plasticard?

180-200 gsm whatman paper, but most of details are underglued with 0.5-1.0 mm cardboard, than covered with cyanoacrylate and slighly polished
And finaly i added rivets and considering model ready to painting

Thanks for the answer. The cyanoacrylic coating explains the sheen I see in the photos. With the rise of the 3d printing. papercrafting is getting even rarer than it already was. It's good to see you keeping it alive.

How do you prime your paper?
I have not had very good luck when trying to paint over paper.

Tommygun1918 wrote:How do you prime your paper?

Spray primer from the can - same as for plastic models.
I asume, after priming surface bended?
This happens with wide flat surfaces and thin paper and waterbased primers. Thats why all such surfaces are reinforced with cardboard from inside.

Amazing body of work! The Macross Valkyrie is especially impressive.
Have you considered uploading your images directly to the gallery rather than as attachments? That would make them more searchable and people could vote on them, put them on the front page etc.
