I'm Building the Assault Mech

Recently I posted a topic requesting help getting the .obj file for the Assualt mech so I could build a model of it and was lucky enough to get some help in that regards. Using that I was able to build some scaled orthographic drawings I could use for reference.
I worked on it a while this weekend and wanted to share my progress with everyone. I will be updating this post with picutres as I make progress. Hope everyone enjoys.

Wish i could do stuff like this but there is a special close in my heath insurance preventing me from doing things like this. ( i cut myself twice with cardboard boxes today )
Edit: have you heard of this http://community.pla...-brain-contest/ ?

Sadly no. Most downloadable papercraft models are done using a 3d program call pepukura. While doing this the model is heavily simplified and loses alot of the fidelity. To create screen acurate models you basically have to build from scratch the old fashioned way, which means most of my models are custom built one-offs. I have created a few donwloadable models for Claptrap from Borderlands and a deck box for Magic the Gathering, but both required alot of time to do by hand and are much simplier than the assault mech.

Had not heard of that, and thanks for pointing me towards it. I am not sure my model will be done by the 25th but if it is, I will be sure to enter it into the contest. Thanks for the heads up.

I had some help getting the 3d model. I used the file to create some orthographic pics that act as templates. It so much faster and easier this way. I have done many models just off screenshots before and it can take forever to build ortho's and the build process is much slower as well.
